Tempo ‘Scuba’ diver watch ⌚️
I’ve been quiet and working on this little project for a while. Those close to me know that I’m a watch (& vinyl record) geek.
I couldn’t have finished this project without the help of others; my good friend Wouter for preparing (& measuring) the design, Jeroen for assembling it all together and delivering the watch ETA2824 movement and finally Sander for the dial printing (who I met through Jeroen and the Dutch watch forum)!
Surely there could be some more improvements; like polishing the edges at the case and strap as they are a little bit sharp and a more smoother crown. But for now this first Tempo ‘Scuba’ prototype I couldn’t be more happy with this being the end result.
Tempo ‘Scuba’ diving watch spec’s:
- Automatic ETA2824 movement
- 200m/600ft waterproof
- Steel case & strap with folding clasp
- 40mm diameter
- Sapphire glass
- Bidirectional black diving bezel
- Complication: date
- Concept: Frodo (c) 2025
Thanks to:

2023 was a personal challenging year for me. A burn-out of work, therapy, an end of a romantic relationship and the end of my almost 20y workmanship at Clone (and the beginning of a new job in feb 2024).
The start of my Enlightenment Intensive (powerful teachings). What this year taught me is that being more conscious on your own body, mind and soul as that is the true basis of our human being. We are already good (perfect) by creation.
Another and most important human skill is that of creation. We don’t need anything else then pure original creation, that should be our main purpose in life (and preserve the creation that has been given to us by nature).
I hereby wish everyone their best life full of creation, happiness (& sadness), playfulness, more skills on empathy, consciousness & awareness, friendships, and lots of fun (if you don’t know how, just watch and see how kids play, yes, it’s that easy).
The four new records that came out this year have been created by:
@orlandovoornofficial / TempoDubs01 🙏🏻
@pugilistmusic & @djtamen / TempoCore0.5 🙏🏻
@etches828 / TempOzone0.5 🙏🏻

inspired her to pursue her passion in the art of spinning. Her style has gradually expanded
from House and Techno to genres such as Dubstep and Drum and Bass. Her sets are
characterized by the uplifting and energetic track choice. To this day, SUZIE has never let go
of her love for drum and bass and you can expect the powerful beats and fast BPMs in her
set at Operator Radio. In addition, SUZIE is not only a versatile DJ with a penchant for drum
and bass, but she also plays an active role in DJ Community Rotterdam, sharing her expertise

One of my favourite Electronic artist is Aphex Twin (besides Photek & Source Direct & Drexciya). Their original distinct sound is what I like & searching for in an artist.

One of my other passions in life is running my Tempo Records @temporec music recordlabels; Speed (classic dnb), Core (Jungle), Ozone (Breakbeats), Subs (heavy dnb) and Dubs (Techno/Electro).
I like searching for new original music with a certain vibe that gives me a boost as well in light & dark energy (the yin & yang).
I’m on the hunt and purpose driven with finding timeless music from old or new producers that make high energy timeless music that comes from their soul & heart.
To make a real connection with all these artists around the world feels like a lot of responsibility too in terms of making sure their music gets a platform & vinyl release in the outerworld and to distribute their music to all the recordshops and other platforms worldwide.
It’s an honor and I’m grateful to be part of this record/vinyl/music mystery and to have the opportunity to be part of growing a bigger creative scene!
Thanks to all the artists & designers & producers & recordshops & distributors involved 🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏
