This watch is characteristic of Tibor Kalman, and his iconoclastic design firm. Clean graphics and dry humor merge in a high-quality product that beckons a second look!
Each hand-crafted timepiece is made of stainless steel ensuring a finish that stays looking new and comes with a genuine top stitched black leather band lined with a taupe glove leather finish and a matching black buckle.
The late Tibor Kalman, founder of M&Co. began his legendary relationship with time in 1983. In the spirit of the motto imprinted on the backside of the watches – “Waste Not a Moment.”
