The Mr Jones Watches brand is defined by the innovative and exciting designs that experiment with the idea of time keeping. The range thinks of watches as portable artworks as well as practical devices.
This Autumn the brand launches the ‘Masters of Time’ collection. The range of five iconic pieces is the result of a series of collaborations with influential individuals – an author, an artist, a comedian, a sportsman and a DJ. Each watch designed to represent the persona of its designer whilst maintaining the brand’s unique style.
For the collection Mr Jones selected five influential figures who he felt represented the creativity and uniqueness of the brand: Graeme Obree World Record breaking cyclist, Iain Sinclair award-winning author and essayist, Willam Andrews writer and comedian Tom Middleton DJ and pioneer of electronic music and Brian Catling poet, sculptor and performance artist.
Mr Jones worked closely alongside each collaborator on their watch to ensure that every detail was incorporated to convey both the ethos behind the brand and the ideas behind the design:
“The watch today is a defunct tool - we all have a mobile phone to check the time on, but the watch endures because it expresses something of our personality. Whilst many watches are a symbol of material wealth, Mr Jones Watches are concerned with ideas.”
Crispin Jones, founder Mr Jones Watches
Each watch in the Master of Time collection is available as part of a signed,
numbered edition of 100 pieces and is priced at £145.
The Masters of Time series is available exclusively from Mr Jones Watches.
