These unique watches came to life with a combined passion for art and timepieces. IKON watches are for those who aren’t afraid to stand out. Those who live by their own rules. The team behind the IKON watches sought to create these pieces because of their passion for watches and a desire to create something special.
Featuring the work of Maximilian Davis, IKON Watches are inspired by those whose names and faces have defined an era. The team spent the past year working with designers in the industry to come up with an affordable, stylish watch collection. Six models will be offered from launch featuring Marilyn Monroe, Kurt Cobain, Pablo Escobar and more.
IKON watches are now crowdfunding on Kickstarter, offering pop culture-inspired watches for just $57.
