Named after the original gin cocktail, John Collins Watch Co. is for the modern gent with an eye for detail and an innate appreciation for understated style, refined minimalism and timeless simplicity. Designed to be dressed up or down with just the change of a band, one John Collins watch will be the only timepiece you ever need. Opt for the gold plated classic white dial with the brown Italian leather strapping for a classic look or bring it back a few notches with the grey woollen tweed strap for everyday.

Each John Collins watch features a versatile interchangeable strap paired with scratch-resistant sapphire glass and Swiss-made movements, to ensure only the finest quality. John Collins Watch Co. is the work of local lad Adam O’Connor, who was inspired by a watch he found in an in-flight magazine. Unfortunately for Adam, that watch was five thousand euro but fortunately for us, it did give him the motivation to create his own range. Fast forward five months and Adam has successfully completed a Kickstarter campaign and plans to release the first collection to the general public any day now. The watch is expected to retail around $195 and the bands around $30. Keep an eye out on the John Collins Watch Co. website.
