Bamford London has created a uniquely designed GMT for the luxury streetwear brand, Billionaire Boys Club, founded by Pharrell Williams.
The BBC x Bamford London ‘Rocket’ GMT watch features a custom dial with a moon surface detail; a nod to Billionaire Boys Club’s affinity with Outerspace. The GMT hand is the Billionaire Boys Club Classic Rocket which was originally illustrated by the Japanese illustrator, SK8THING in 2003/2004, especially for Billionaire Boys Club.
The red accent of the rocket is continued with a red seconds hand and triangle on the bezel at 12 o’clock and the caseback has a unique engraving. Limited to 25 pieces, it is presented in a special box made with Chenille fabric and velvet lining embroidered with the Billionaire Boys Club logo. Priced at $2,500, the automatic GMT watch includes a self winding mechanism with ball bearing and an internal rotating bezel.
“I am so happy to be working with one of the icons of streetwear. It is such a great collaboration for us as a business and it has been a long time in the making. I am excited for it to launch at BBC’s Miami flagship store.”
George Bamford, Founder, Bamford London
