The Mickey Mouse Watches from the OVER THE STRiPES x Beams collaborations are nostalgic timepieces that bring the classic cartoon character back into the minds of more mature fans.

On these Mickey Mouse Watches, the legendary Disney character has a wacky expression with his tongue hanging out. With two face options of a white on black or inverse, the Mickey Mouse Watches can be set in either a metal or black leather band. Set to be released sometime in April 2011, these Mickey Mouse Watches will have people remembering all their favorite Disney moments. This is one OVER THE STRiPES x Beams collaboration piece that's definitely worth snatching up.
