WARM & WONDERFUL X MAURICE DE MAURIAC “BLACK SHEEP”
The ‘Black Sheep’ design has now made its way into watch culture through a luminous collaboration between Zurich-based watch brand Maurice de Mauriac and Warm & Wonderful to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the original knitwear company revitalised by Rowing Blazers.
Limited to 45 pieces, the ‘Black Sheep’ edition fits most wrists with its 39mm case, traditionally used in the brand’s Classic collection and tennis-inspired Rallymaster series. It is powered by a Swiss Landeron automatic movement and comes with not one, but two two-piece stretch textile straps specially developed for Maurice de Mauriac – one black and one white, both with a red centre line, which can be worn according to the wearer’s mood or style.

Watch Specifications
The PVD-Case back
The case back is made of solid, polished stainless steel with a PVD coating and engraved sheep logo.The watch is equipped with not just one, but two two-piece textile flex straps specially developed for Maurice de Mauriac - a black and a white one, both with a red centre line, which can be worn as the mood takes you or as the occasion demands.
Black screw-down crown
The case is 12 mm high. The black crown is easy to grip and can be turned precisely so that the watch can be set with great ease. The water resistance is 10 ATM. This means that the watches can be worn when washing hands, in the rain, when washing up and showering, when washing the car, when skiing, trekking and, of course, diving. The Watchbox
The set contains a specially made black sheep and a specially made, two-piece stretchable textile flex strap, with a quick-change system for changing the straps quickly and independently.The watch box also includes a ‘Black Sheep’ patch that can be knit anywhere to underline the symbolic distinctive identity and the significance of being the odd one out.
The darker the lighter
Super-LumiNova is a phosphorescent phosphor and is free from radioactive additives. Super LumiNova is a hundred times brighter than other inactive luminescent pigments. When the luminous pigments are stimulated by daylight or artificial light, they release the light energy they have absorbed over several hours in the dark. This makes the watch extremely easy to read, even in the dark. The darker the brighter In an era of globalization, individuality is more and more valued.
In a politically correct era where there is pressure to behave according to socially acceptable conventions, being a black sheep means one rejects to conform. For those free spirits who refuse to run with the pack, Maurice de Mauriac and Warm & Wonderful have created a seminal collaborative timepiece: the ‘Black Sheep’.Diana was a perfect symbol for the so-called black sheep:
She stood outside the royal norm and was particularly loved for it. That suits us, as Maurice de Mauriac is always a little outside the mainstream and is loved for it. When the question arose as to whether we wanted to make such a ‘Diana watch’, we immediately embraced the idea. 1

Special Edition
A Swiss flying squadron wears our watches at supersonic speeds, our watches have accompanied them on the long journey to the moon, they have chased felt balls, plunged down mountains, rowed across the Atlantic, conquered the desert and been on the world's stages. Not just like that, but as a collaboration in which two names proudly adorn a watch. The collaborators are world-famous or only known in their own world. For us, they are heroes. Each for themselves. And each for you.

Christmas came early! 🌟
We had the pleasure of customising a Züri-Date for the 10th anniversary of a Zurich-based company(and let us tell you, it was a success!)
The whole team put their creativity and dedication into it, and together with the CEOs, we created something very special to celebrate this milestone.
We couldn’t be happier to have made this evening memorable and to be part of their journey.
Maybe you’re next? 😉

Some watches tell the time. Others make it shine.
Perhaps that is precisely why the DJ duo Doppelgänger love the Pillow Ghost so much. Amid the beats, movement and people who want to lose track of time for a few hours, this watch feels remarkably at home. It dances along. On a wrist that plays music, follows rhythms and shapes the night. And while the lights flicker around it, its own glow gives time both clarity and meaning.
There is something lovely about that thought. A watch that comes most vividly to life in the very place where people would rather forget what time it is.
Pillow Ghost 👻
Because the Ghost has a special relationship with darkness. As daylight fades, its luminous dial comes to the fore. What is an exceptional piece of design by day becomes a small spectacle of light and time at night. The watch changes its appearance without losing its character. It becomes visible as so much around it disappears from view.

Oh my god, moving was a huge step for us! ❤️
Taking over our dad’s legacy has been one of the most beautiful gifts we could have received. And getting to do it together, as siblings, makes it even more special.
Wouldn’t be the same without our young, passionate team. So much love for what we do and for the people we do it with. ❤️
