New Block Watches From Tom Dixon's Eclectic Collection.




Three new 2013 watches have been designed by Tom Dixon as part of his Eclectic Collection. The Eclectic Collection is a collection of everyday home accessories, giftware and design objects formed from honest, resilient and heavyweight materials including copper, marble, cast iron and wood.

The products are informed by British heritage and each piece is designed to be used or played with, to be treasured or to be given. The Block Watches are the newest addition to this collection, are made from the most minimal components and come in three variations.

Block Watch Stainless Steel Mesh:


The square case is stamped from a fat block of pure stainless steel with a Swiss movement. The dial is deep etched with the numerals that point precisely at the time makers, encased in a crystal face to protect. Each watch is laser etched with its own unique number.

Block Watch Rose Gold Mesh:


The square case is stamped from a fat block of pure stainless steel plated with rose gold with a Swiss movement. The dial is deep etched with the numerals that point precisely at the time makers, encased in a crystal face to protect. Each watch is laser etched with its own unique number.
