Two things that George Bamford can always make you do is want his latest watch and smile. Not a polite, ‘very good’ smile, but a proper Cheshire Cat grin. Be it Popeye, Sesame Street or Peanuts \u2014 his watches do what is so often missing in our industry, and they don\u2019t take themselves too seriously. The latest watch to get Bamford\u2019s magical touch is the Franck Muller Crazy Hours, with a Snoopy center piece and some very interesting lume\u2026<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Franck Muller X BWD Crazy Hours - Snoopy<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

If you aren\u2019t aware of the Franck Muller Crazy Hours, I\u2019ll give you a quick run-down. It does what is says on the tin, with the craziest approach to time telling you can imagine. Stripping away the accepted and conventional way of telling the time in a linear or chronological order, the hours are ordered non-sequentially on the dial, and the hour hand literally jumps around the dial to tell the time. The minutes function as you would expect but the hour hand does anything but work conventionally, thanks to a patented mechanism. Sure, it’s niche but it\u2019s fun \u2014 and that is central to the watch\u2019s appeal, especially in this BWD guise.<\/p>\n

The Crazy Hours Cintree Curvex is a 39.6mm stainless case that has been given a matte black finish with a sapphire crystal. Available in a limited run of 25 pieces, the watch\u2019s main protagonist is Snoopy, whose arms act as the hour and minute hands. There’s a double appearance from Woodstock, who sits atop the nine and ten hour markers which are not where you think they\u2019ll be, remember! The dial is hand-painted, and then the craziness continues with wavy, concentric lume lines across the entire dial, meaning the watch is even more fun in the dark!<\/div><\/div><\/div>

George Bamford says, \u201cWorking on the Franck Muller Crazy Hours watch has been so much fun. I cannot stop smiling when I look at this watch as there are so many cool elements to it. Adding Snoopy to this crazy dial, and using his arms to point to the numerals is amazing. I love using the iconic concentric circular pattern around Snoopy, and what takes this watch to the next level is the luminous effect used on the dial. I also love having Woodstock in wonderful places throughout this piece. It really is a culmination of so many things I adore.\u201d<\/div><\/div><\/div>

In a world where many of us, myself included, tend to check the time on our phones with the occasional cursory glance at the wrist-mounted time, the Crazy Hours is a new challenge to us in actually taking a minute to truly \u2018tell the time\u2019. So thank you George for making this happen!<\/div><\/div><\/div>
