Film-Inspired Watch Lines

Kross Studio & Hasbro Debut the Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Set

— July 14, 2023 — Pop Culture
The highly anticipated ‘Transformers: Rise of the Beasts’ hit theatres on June 9th, 2023 and to commemorate this occasion, watchmaker Kross Studio partnered with Hasbro to release a limited-edition Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Collector Set.

The set includes a Kross Studio Central Floating Tourbillon Watch and a Transformers-inspired functional sculpture. The popular culture-inspired timepiece features a central floating tourbillon and a unique peripheral display. The watch is crafted with attention to detail, including engravings and SuperLuminova accents. The sculpture, on the other hand, pays homage to Maximal Airazor.

The collaborators noted that they wanted to create “something truly remarkable” to mirror the “action-packed entertainment” that has been a staple of The Transformer franchise for over 15 years.
