Object Dossier
IST.15.61 Development
Authorship
Designed by Roozbeh Valamanesh for Dogma Watches in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Design Origin
Istanbul asks how more than one place can be carried in a single moment. The city-ring composition brings geography and the simultaneous experience of time into the dial.
Architecture
A proposed GMT-driven 24-hour indication and city ring organize the display around a central medallion. The display architecture remains in development.
Making & Provenance
Engineering and supplier qualification are underway. Component manufacture, finishing, final assembly and testing will be documented as each is confirmed.
Ownership & support
GMT and the proposed world-time display
The Miyota 9075 provides a central GMT indication and an independently adjustable local-hour hand. This allows local time to change in one-hour steps while the GMT indication continues to show a reference time.
Dogma’s proposed display uses that GMT output to drive a 24-hour disc against a city ring. The intended reading is the hour on the disc beside a city, with minutes read from the main minute hand. This is a custom display under development; disc alignment and setting controls still require validation. It is not an independently driven worldtimer mechanism.
A fixed city ring does not automatically account for daylight-saving changes. Half-hour and quarter-hour offsets require an adjustment when reading the display. Final setting instructions and the supported city offsets will be published after prototype validation.

Warranty & service
Requesting service
- Contact Dogma with the reference, order number or proof of purchase, a description of the issue, and photographs or video where helpful.
- Wait for assessment and shipping instructions before sending the watch. Do not open the case or arrange an unauthorized repair.
- Coverage, available parts, any paid work and the expected timeframe depend on the watch and assessment. The applicable warranty terms remain those stated for your purchase.
Atelier pieces are studio prototypes. Review the individual disclosure and included items before buying; their materials and construction may differ from later production watches. Replacement of a custom dial, finish or other prototype component depends on whether a suitable part is available.
