Isotope / Rider Jumping Hour

Isotope Rider Jumping Hour

Collection profile · 2016

Isotope’s Rider Jumping Hour is the brand’s debut model and the clearest expression of its early design language, pairing Streamline Moderne and Art Deco references with a bespoke Swiss jumping-hour module, a domed crystal, and the teardrop motif that later became a signature across the line.

Why it matters

As the inaugural Isotope watch, Rider established the brand’s signature mix of playful retro-futurism and technical novelty, especially its dedication to unconventional time display.
