KRUGER
Commission a timepiece

Collections

Limited series, drawn from where we come from.

Editions

Our own designs

Limited series drawn from South African wildlife, culture and heritage, and from collaborations with artists and designers working here. If you would rather design your own, that is a commission.

A collection is a small numbered series we design ourselves, taking its subject from the country around us: its wildlife, its landscapes, and the history that shaped where we work. Same workshop, same registry, same standard of finishing as a commission. What differs is that we chose the story on the dial.

We also collaborate with South African artists and designers on series of their own. Every series is finite and individually numbered, and once a run is complete that design is retired.

The same standard

Assembled and finished by us, by hand, to the same standard as a commission. The only thing that differs is who chose the story on the dial.

Recorded and authenticated

Your piece arrives with its drawings, its serial number, its letter of authentication and a written account of what the design represents.

Numbered and finite

You know exactly how many exist and which one is yours. That number never changes and is never reused.

Ours to look after

We service and repair everything we make, so a collection piece comes home for care in exactly the way a commission does.

The first collection

Our first series is being made now

The first KRUGER collection is in the workshop. It draws on the landscape we work in and on the history that shaped it, and it sets the standard everything after it will be measured against.

If you would like to see it before anyone else, tell us and we will write to you directly when it is ready.

You see it first

We write to everyone who has registered before the collection is shown publicly, with the finished designs, the full specification and the number of pieces in the series.

Registering commits you to nothing

It simply places your name on the list. Nothing is asked of you at this stage, and no payment details are ever requested on this website.

Numbered in order

Pieces are allocated in the order names were received, so registering early means the lower numbers in the series remain available to you.

When it is ready

We will name a date once we can meet it, for the same reason each piece takes months rather than weeks. The work sets the pace.

Or commission your own

If there is a particular occasion you want to mark, a commission is the better route. You sit down with us and design the whole timepiece together, from the dial through to the strap and the engraving. It takes months, and it is one of one.
