Hackett London and Bamford London are collaborating to release an exclusive, limited edition timepiece
British menswear brand Hackett London has announced a brand new collaboration with luxury watchmaker Bamford London, resulting in an exclusive, limited edition timepiece that combines both timeless style and substance.
The Swiss-made Hackett x Bamford London GMT watch houses the self-winding Sellita SW330-2 movement with 25 jewels and a 56-hour power reserve, and has been designed for the “modern gentleman with an appreciation for craftsmanship and individuality”.
Inspired by travel, the automatic 24-hour GMT hand with an internal rotating bezel allows users to view a separate time zone. This watch acts as a fusion of both brands’ values, featuring details that reflect Hackett’s world famous style and Bamford’s passion for personalisation.

Bamford is known for its exclusive, customised and personalised timepieces. And its founder, George Bamford, couldn’t wait to jump on this collaboration with Hackett London.
“I am so excited by this collaboration with the team at Hackett London, an iconic British brand that I’ve grown up with and I love,” he said in a statement.
Hackett, which was co-founded by Jeremy Hackett in 1983, has grown to become a leading name in British menswear, and has been dressing men around the world for over four decades. When Jeremy happened upon the opportunity to collaborate with a personalised watch brand like Bamford, he didn’t waste any time.

“I have always been passionate about watches and believe it to be one of the few accessories a gentleman can wear, so I am delighted that Hackett has collaborated with Bamford watches to create this limited edition timepiece,” he said, adding: “There’s no time like the present.”
The watch will be available online on both Hackett and Bamford’s websites as well as in select Hackett stores. The watch is designed for menswear and watch enthusiasts by two of the best names in British craftsmanship and heritage.
