    uniE621 The Silent Thief
    A magnificent watch to stir your imagination. The Silent Thief watch was designed by British Artist, Andy Wilx. The name of the watch is both a play on the thieving nature of the magpie and time as an ever-present, silent thief. The bird rolls his eye and watches us all the time - waiting for his moment to catch us unaware and strike! The hours and minutes are displayed on the intricately patterned discs, the design creates a kaleidoscope of colour and pattern as the discs turn. The Silent Thief has been gilded using pure palladium, which creates a beautiful shimmer on the watch face. It is also powered by a stunning Swiss-made automatic mechanical movement, which is visible through the glass case back. illustrator
    uniE621 The Golden Hour
    Inspired by the magic of the English garden, this stunning design was created for us by Andy Wilx. The golden bee at the centre of the face hovers above a carpet of foliage and flora. Each watch is gilded with two tones of solid gold, which make the bee shimmer in the sunshine. The Golden Hour is also powered by a Swiss-made automatic mechanical movement, this means it doesn't have a battery, instead, it is powered by your movement. illustrator
