Ideal for travellers, Bamford has released a limited-edition automatic GMT watch in partnership with Harrods. Jenny Southan reports
To celebrate Harrods’ 175th anniversary, Bamford London has partnered with PEANUTS™ to create an exclusive limited-edition timepiece featuring Snoopy – with an extra 24-hour hand to show the time in a second time zone.
This limited-edition character GMT is encased in a black steel case displaying Snoopy in rich gold with a green trim, front and centre on the dial.
Snoopy’s arms form the hour and minute hands, with his best friend Woodstock perched on the tip of the second hand.
The watch is powered by a Swiss-made Sellita SW330-2 movement, which generates up to 56 hours of power, and is presented on a green Cordura strap with gold stitching, in a unique green and gold trim PEANUTS doghouse box.
George Bamford says: “It is an honour to be working with Harrods on their 175th anniversary, and with such an iconic brand as PEANUTS. Two icons coming together in one beautiful watch that I know will be a collectors’ item and a favourite amongst both Harrods and Bamford clients.”
The Bamford London “Harrods” Limited Edition Snoopy PVD GMT is limited to just 100 pieces and costs £1,850.
