Meet our collaborators

We are luckily enough to work with such amazing creatives at Mr Jones Watches.

We thought it was time to let you know more about the talented people who design our watches.  

Onorio D'Epiro 

A designer and illustrator from Bedfordshire, Onorio is the creative behind Number Cruncher, Robotto Shi and The Watchful Ones. As a child he developed a fascination for character design and special effects and mastered the video recorder at a precocious age in order to feed his passion for film.

He studied Model Design and Special Effects at the University of Hertfordshire and after graduating was drawn to the world of designer art toys. He began by creating one-off bespoke pieces and later developed a series of robot collectables known as “Justrobots”, which gained a dedicated following around the world.

Kristof Devos 

Belgian Illustrator and Author, Kristof Devos designed both A perfectly useless morning and A perfectly useless afternoon.

The majority of his work is as a picture-book illustrator. He creates books for children of all ages on themes such as friendship, death and standing up for yourself.

His work has been described as both quirky and modest. Once in a while he puts down his pencil and takes to the stage, giving public talks on diverse themes such as inspiration and imagination.

Matteo Girardi 

An Italian Graphic Designer who lives in Milan, Matteo designed our most recent release Mare Adesso. He recently graduated from his studies in graphics and communication and he studied drawing at the Scuola Superiore d’Arte Applicata in Milan.

Mare Adesso was the result of a project organised by the Scuola Superiore d’Arte Applicata and Mr Jones Watches - the students at the school were challenged to design a watch for us and we liked this design so much that we decided to produce it.
