To mark its 15th anniversary, watch brand Ressence will publish Ahead of Time. Whilst Ressence is a luxury watch brand, this is no homage to the industry - instead the title profiles creatives across a range of fields whose work embodies the Ressence philosophy: to re-imagine the essential. In the book, entrepreneurial visionaries share their perspectives on the future within their respective fields creating an inspiring, collectable volume that offers a positive, informed perspective on where we are all heading.

Former Monocle journalist Nolan Giles interviews Daniel Libeskind, Joe Gebbia, Stefan Sagmeister, Tony Fadell (Nest), Ivy Ross (Google), Spencer Bailey (journalist, co-founder of The Slowdown), Tina Fordham (geopolitical strategist and adviser), Phil Schiller (Apple), and 12 others.
