Ferrier paused for a moment, got that slightly faraway look in his eyes, and said, “I would like it to remind me of the Amazon rainforest and be a wonderful verdant green. The Amazon is the single, most species-rich biodome in the world, and an important resource for humanity. It covers one percent of the Earth’s surface but is home to 10 percent of the species on our planet.”
Indeed, the Amazon rainforest or Amazonia plays an incredibly important role in stabilizing our environment, storing 76 billion tons of carbon, and releasing 20 billion tons of water. It is also the habitat for a rich plethora of undiscovered species of plants and animals.
Says Ferrier, “I’ve always believed there is no inspiration greater than nature. At the same time, I feel that the mechanical watch is an important ethical device in that it endures forever, and it only consumes the energy imparted by its owner when he winds it or, in the case of an automatic micro-rotor watch, when he wears it.”
