The History of Ikepod WatchesThe IKEPOD Watch Company was founded in 1994 by Oliver Ike and Marc Newson in Switzerland.The brand�s timepieces reflect the delicate balance between two opposite visions and the cooperation of two different people. Swiss businessman Oliver Ike was dreaming about developing a series of watches that would reflect the image of technical excellence and advanced designs. His idea couldn�t have been realized without the assistance of the gifted designer. He fixed his choice upon Marc Newson, a widely appreciated furniture and interior designer whose talent evoked Ike�s admiration. Oliver Ike intrigued Newson with his ideas and quickly received his agreement to become the exclusive designer of the new mechanical watches. It provided the beginning for the successful partnership and appearance of the Ikepod trademark named for Oliver Ike and for Newson's design style. As the result, today IKepod is internationally appreciated for developing its individual special watch lines. The original design of Ikepod watches were born due to the magnetic personality of Marc Newson. The designer was born in Sydney, Australia in 1963. He was traveling a lot in Europe and Asia. He graduated from College of Arts (jewellery and sculpture) at Sydney. Marc Newson is one of the most prestigious and respected designers of his generation. He has already worked in numerous spheres of business and created everything from chairs and household objects to restaurants and cars. His talent is displayed in the designs of furniture, glassware, bicycles, interiors of restaurants and even personal jets. Newson�s collections were exhibited in the major museums: Museum of Modern Art in New York, London�s Design Museum and many others. Ikepod watches can be found in the prestigious watch and jewellery shops in more than 40 countries around the world. All movement transformations are finished in-house by Ikepod. The most popular Ikepod movement is the new automatic flying Tourbillon launched in November, 2000. Every timepiece is designed by Newson in his special style, and some even demonstrate his signature in bright orange color. Every watch, except for the newest Manatee timepiece, has a case form in an original design. You will be surprised by the variety of leather straps, steel, or gold bracelets. Ikepod replica watches are famous for both their extraordinary design and innovative mechanical functions.
