Timex has revealed a painterly collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art, turning some of the New York institution’s most-revered artworks into wearable, expressive timepieces.<\/p>\n
Inside the collection, Timex’s Modern Easy Reader, which boasts a clear and legible dial with straightforward functionality, comes in two artistic finishes. The first iteration dons Gustav Klimt’s 1912-13 portrait of M\u00e4da Primavesi on the dial, and the painting continues down the watch’s leather strap, separated by a sophisticated, silver-toned case. The second watch sees Vincent Van Gogh’s\u00a0famous self-portrait take over in a similar manner.<\/p>\n
Down the line, Timex’s T80 timepiece, which operates digitally, hosts Utagawa Hiroshige’s\u00a0Maples at Mama\u00a0<\/em>woodblock print from around 1857. The design surrounds the watch’s screen and commands its resin strap. Rounding out the collection, a second T80 watch is decorated with Katsushika Hokusai‘s Under the Wave off Kanagawa\u00a0<\/em>woodblock print, which was crafted around 1830-32. The famous wave illustration, which is also known as\u00a0The Great Wave<\/em>, belongs to Hokusai’s signature\u00a0Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji <\/em>series.<\/p>\n The Timex x The Met collection is now available to shop on Timex’s webstore. Prices range from \u00a3100 GBP to \u00a3110 GBP. Take a closer look at the collaboration in the gallery above.<\/p>\n
