Those who are familiar with the Royal Observatory in London will recognize the imagery of the Greenwich Time Gate Watch as being designed after the likeness of the Shepherd Gate Clock that sits on the wall next to the entrance to the landmark. The creators of the Greenwich Time Gate Watch were enchanted with the Shepherd Gate Clock and searched for a similar design in a wristwatch. Coming up with no results, the Greenwich Time Gate Watch was born and is now funding on Kickstarter.
Featuring a precision-crafted design and a number of different color and design options, the Greenwich Time Gate Watch calls to mind the aesthetic of a different era, but with a distinctly modern twist.
