Driftwood Designs has launched its first ever watch. Designed in Wales by artist Lizzie Spikes it sports numbers written out in full, in the Welsh language. Produced in London, this is the first and only Welsh language watch that is British-made.
Welsh artist and illustrator Lizzie Spikes’ passion is creating colourful illustrations that can be translated to homewares, cards, prints and so much more. But she has never ventured into watches before!
Lizzie’s latest inspiration came to her earlier this year. She decided to design a wristwatch in the hope that by using it she and others could stop time checking on mobile phones and getting sucked into the ‘scroll hole’ of endless notifications!
The timepiece was designed to be vibrant, beautiful and legible without the call for reading glasses. The original design was inspired by the geometry of flowers and the desire to include the numbers in Welsh written form. The result is bright and colourful and does, indeed have both numbers and the corresponding Welsh words written on its face.
The watch comes with a coordinating, teal blue, real leather strap and a 2-year warranty. It has a reliable quartz movement and is water resistant to 3ATM (approx. 30 meters deep).
This new watch is not just a treat for the eye, it is also practical and reliable.
RRP: £60 with free UK packaging and postage. Supplies are limited so get your orders in quickly.
