Gentleman's Style featuring The Oxford Hawksmoor


Keeping up with high end fashion isn't something that we aspire to do. We are much more interested in creating pieces that are forever fashionable. Something that would never seem dated or old but a watch that will always make a fashion statement. 




Our Oxford Hawksmoor is one of our most simplistic watches yet showcasing uttermost elegance and style in its look and feel. Being in a larger case, measuring 41mm, the face is one of our biggest and the style that it offers is immeasurable. With a cream or blue dial, all printed with the Oxford University crest, this simple watch is there to be noticed. 





Whether you are wearing it because you love the look of it or because Oxford University holds special memories for you, this watch very much offers Oxford flair in its elegant design.
For us, designing such a piece was very exciting. It is a tribute to one of Britain's most original architects Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661-1736) who was a pupil at Wren and a near contemporary of the first Christopher Pinchbeck; They could have easily have known each other in London. As well as several University buildings in Oxford he designed six churches in the capital, and worked on a number of stately homes.



Our Hawksmoor is a real collectors piece and is a very beautiful watch to own and wear.
