THE MOVEMENT

I walked into a networking event expecting opportunity. What I witnessed was chaos.

Business cards scattered on tables, forgotten. Someone handed me a fake thousand-dollar bill with contact info printed on it — absurd theater masquerading as memorability. Another person made me download an app just to get his email and phone number.

I walked out early. Not in disgust — in clarity.

The tools we were using to connect were actively working against connection. In a room full of ambition, everyone was fumbling. And if they were fumbling, so was everyone else, everywhere.

That night, the idea crystallized: What if networking felt like a handshake instead of a transaction?

My name is Nicolas Carrion. I'm 23 years old. I'm not a trained horologist. I don't have a degree in mechanical engineering. I'm self-taught, self-driven, and obsessively curious.

I grew up taking things apart — motorcycles, engines, anything with moving parts. I was a motorcycle mechanic before this. I've got a workshop full of tools most people have never heard of, and I know how to use every single one. I learned by doing, failing, and doing it again better.

What I do have is something no degree can teach: relentless drive. When I see a problem, I don't complain — I build the solution. When I envision something, I don't wait for permission — I create it.

Movement didn't start in a boardroom or a design lab. It started at my workbench, with a vision of what networking should feel like and the skills to make it real.

The name carries three meanings, all intentional:

1. The Mechanical Movement — At the heart of every timepiece is the movement, the intricate mechanism that brings it to life. It's invisible to most, but without it, the watch is just metal and glass. The movement is what makes it real.

2. A Cultural Movement — This isn't just a product. It's the beginning of a shift in how ambitious people connect. Imagine walking into a room where everyone has a Movement timepiece. No apps. No cards. Just tap, connect, and focus on the conversation. That's the future I'm building toward.

3. Forward Motion — Momentum. Progress. Never standing still. This brand exists because I refuse to accept "good enough." The MV1 CARDIUM is just the start.
