Introducing the Limited Edition Andy Warhol "Collage" Watch

Andy Warhol famously said, “Art is what you can get away with.” And with the launch of the Limited Edition “Collage” Watch, we’re celebrating that audacious spirit by turning one of his most iconic practices into a stunning piece of wearable Haute Horlogerie.

This new timepiece, created in partnership with the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, is far more than a watch—it’s a miniature, mesmerizing Pop Art masterpiece for the wrist.

A New Interpretation of a Warholian Masterpiece

The watch draws its primary inspiration from Warhol’s famed 1986 Polaroid Collage Self-Portrait—a work that exemplifies his experimentation with repetition, color, and fragmented imagery.

But rather than simply printing the art, our artisans have translated the essence of the collage technique into an extraordinary, tactile material: stone marquetry.

  • The Dial as a Canvas: The watch dial is a vibrant, abstract composition crafted from thin slices of four different ornamental stones:
    • Black Onyx as a polished, deep backdrop (a nod to the color of Warhol’s own personal watch).
    • Yellow Namibian Serpentine, Pink Opal, and Green Chrysoprase arranged in a geometric, fragmented pattern that beautifully captures the eye-popping, layered effect of a Polaroid collage.
    • A true Métiers d’Art creation, no two dials will be exactly alike, ensuring that each of the 50 pieces is unique.

The Ultimate Collector’s Piece

The design is housed in a distinctive 45mm cushion-shaped case rendered in 18-carat yellow gold, a direct and luxurious homage to the style of the watch that Warhol himself wore—a model that the Maison has now officially re-christened the “Andy Warhol Watch.”

The artistic detail extends even to the back of the timepiece. The solid caseback is engraved with the outline of the self-portrait that inspired the dial, along with Andy Warhol’s signature, cementing its ties to the artist’s legacy. Powering this wearable art is a high-performance, in-house mechanical self-winding calibre.

Art on Your Wrist, History in Your Hands

Andy Warhol was a prolific collector of watches, viewing them less as instruments of time and more as objects of design and cultural commentary. The “Collage” Limited Edition is a continuation of that vision—a celebration of an artist who turned everyday objects into icons.

Key Features at a Glance:

  • Limited to just 50 pieces worldwide.
  • Dial: Hand-assembled ornamental stone marquetry (Black Onyx, Yellow Serpentine, Pink Opal, Green Chrysoprase).
  • Case: 45mm 18-Carat Yellow Gold, in a design inspired by Warhol’s personal watch.
  • Caseback: Engraved with the artist’s iconic self-portrait and signature.

The Limited Edition Andy Warhol “Collage” Watch is not just a timekeeper; it’s an invitation to wear a piece of Pop Art history. Available now at Piaget.
