It's likely no easy task for the furniture designer to go from crafting oversized pieces to something one wears on their wrist, but the Matthew Hilton MH01 Watch is a clear example of how the designer has proved his strong capabilities. Crafted from stainless steel and coming in two different color variations, the Matthew Hilton MH01 Watch has a mineral crystal glass face and features a design that lets the sumptuous leather strap glide straight through the main portion of the body rather than being connected separately.
Limited to a mere 50 in number, the Matthew Hilton MH01 Watch will feature a serial etching on the side of the timepiece to let you know which of the limited set you've received.
