Seeing the success of this collaboration, with over 1 million examples sold in 2022, despite some issues regarding availability, it was […]
I haven’t thought much about kids’ watches since… Well, when I was a kid. My first watch was a blue-dialled Timex with a manual movement, and let me tell you, I beat the living snot out of that thing. It took a licking and kept on ticking, until it didn’t. I loved that thing to … Continued

A couple of weeks ago, T+T reported how Swatch were suing the Malaysian government after it seized 172 of their watches from stores. The reason for the seizure?
