The Promise of Happiness

£ 295

Track the time like a tiger with this miniature jungle scene.

This unique watch encourages you to have fun with your time.

The playful tiger looks to the moon for the hour and you’ll find the minutes camouflaged within his stripes.

This intricate piece of wearable artwork was hand-painted for us by Fanny Shorter.

We then printed each colour of the design layer by layer, and assembled the watch in our London workshop.

The layered print on the watch, makes the time completely integrated within the jungle scene.

How to read the time

The moon in the night sky will show you the hour, the minutes pass through the tigers stripes.

The watch also has a jump hour feature, so the hour flips in the moon, exactly on the 59 > 00 minute shift, blink and you’ll miss it!

This means the motion of wearing your watch provides the power to wind it up and keep it running.

Free Royal Mail 1st Class / International tracked shipping, 2-14 working days depending on location. You can see a more accurate timescale when you input your address at the checkout.

Shipping guide for t-shirts

All t-shirts on our website are now printed and shipped by an external supplier inside the UK. This means that if you place an order for both a watch and a t-shirt, they will be shipped separately.

Our supplier uses a Royal Mail tracked service for all shipments and this usually takes a little longer than our watches. You can see an estimated timescale when you input your address at the checkout.

 

Please note, during busy sale periods dispatch may take a little longer (this is quite rare). These delivery times are a guide based on the carriers terms of service, products may, in some unusual cases take longer to arrive. If this happens, please get in touch.
