When it comes to limited edition watches, the guys at Hodinkee have been responsible for some of our favourites over the last few years here at Coolector HQ and they’re at it again with their latest release – this stunning Bamford x Hodinkee Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition Watch. As with most limited edition creations from Hodinkee and a leading watchmaker, this one sold out fast but you can join the waitlist for when they have a restock.
The Bamford x Hodinkee Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition retails for $1850 and it will be an essential addition to any Snoopy loving watch collector out there. This is Hodinkee’s first collaboration with London watchmaker, Bamford, and they’ve hit a home run right off the bat in our humble opinion here at Coolector HQ. Inventive, exciting, and always fun, the British watchmaker founded by George Bamford has become the industry’s authority on colour and character in watch design. He was the perfect man for the job when Hodinkee decided we wanted to create their first character watch. And Snoopy the ideal muse.
IMPRESSIVE DESIGN FEATURES THROUGHOUT
The Bamford × Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition Watch For HODINKEE begins with the classic form of the Bamford London GMT, a 40mm × 11.7mm stainless steel timepiece which boasts a three o’clock date window and a second time-zone display. The dial has a matte brown background that complements Joe Preppy’s tweed jacket, while the bidirectional internal rotating bezel has a 24-hour display split into 12-hour halves.
Definitely one for the Snoopy aficionado, this Bamford x Hodinkee Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition Watch ($1850) has turned our head here at The Coolector and it’s little wonder that it flew off Hodinkee’s digital shelves so quickly. The case design reminds us of some of the best-loved 1960s military dive watches, with a cushion shape, a solid case back, and a secondary crown at 10 o’clock that controls the internal rotating bezel. Within the extraordinary looking Bamford × Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition For HODINKEE you’ll find the self-winding Sellita SW330-2 movement, which is capable of delivering 42 hours of running autonomy and a jumping 24-hour hand.
The Bamford x Peanuts “Joe Preppy” GMT Limited Edition For HODINKEE is purpose built to be fun, fashionable, and entirely charming. Mission well and truly accomplished as far as we’re concerned. Snoopy is a cheerful character who doesn’t take things too seriously; and the guys at Hodinkee wanted to bring that same vibe to this top notch collaboration. The 40mm stainless steel watch is now available in a run of 250 numbered pieces. Sign up to make sure you don’t miss out on any re-releases of this one.
