Maurice Lacroix has teamed up once again with British artist WOTTO (Craig Watkins) for a playful twist on the brand’s urban classic: the AIKON Quartz WOTTO Limited Edition. The 40 mm stainless-steel case, finished with a gunmetal double PVD treatment, gives off a moody charcoal tone that contrasts nicely with the black bezel. Beneath the surface, WOTTO’s familiar cast of characters – skulls, ghosts, and curious creatures – emerge in subtle tone-on-tone layers across the dial, turning a minimalist watch into a wearable piece of pop-art storytelling.
Details are where the fun begins. A tiny luminescent ghost rides the minute hand, glowing when light fades, while matte black hands with white Super-LumiNova keep everything legible. A flash of pink from the seconds hand and matching strap loops adds a pop of irreverence, balanced by the Easychange rubber strap and gunmetal buckle. The real party trick, though, is the date wheel where 31 miniature WOTTO drawings replace traditional numerals, making every day a new reveal.
Limited to 500 pieces and powered by the dependable Ronda 515 quartz movement, the watch is water-resistant to 100 meters and comes in a special collector’s box. It’s equal parts Swiss precision and street-art personality, a reminder that even timekeeping can have a sense of humor.
