The Ripple

Launching in 2025

3D Rippled Dial 38mm Dress & Everyday Watch

Hypnotising: The mesmerising Ripple is a fully custom made 38mm dress watch & everyday watch that you and others simply won't be able to stop looking at.

Sized for both men & women, the 3D rippling effect that emanates from the Edward Christopher logo motif, complemented by faceted leaf hour, minute & second hands - all of which are highlighted with Super-LumiNova (BGW9).

And although there's no bezel, to maintain the Ripple's elegant minimalism, there are 12 angular cuts around the dial edge to give subtle guidance on the time in 5 minute intervals

Understated Elegance for Men & Women

To minimize any design distractions, there are no complications. And 12 time markers are notched subtly around the inner case edge, in 5 minute intervals, to allow the dial design its full visual and aesthetic power.

The motif-topped screw-down crown is embedded in the 4 o'clock position. And, even though it adds to the streamlined feel of the Ripple, it's been designed to be easily accessible and usable.

And all three elegant leaf hands, each with BGW9 Super Lumi-Nova, blend beautifully with the dial ripples.

Uniquely Distinctive Rotor & Quick-Release Bracelet

The striking visuals continue on the underside with the sapphire crystal exhibition case back. This features a unique and distinctive vented rotor, in our Edward Christopher violet/purple brand colour (on all Ripple watches), that drives the Miyota self-winding automatic movement, with its 42 hour power reserve.

The brushed 316L stainless steel, custom made, minimalist, integrated quick-release bracelet, with polished chamfers, follows the charming curves of the case. And it also comes with a micro-adjust clasp complete with an engraved Edward Christopher logo in our violet/purple brand colour on the outside and an engraved brand name & logo on the clasp's inside.

And this watch's lugs are designed so you can easily fit any 20mm strap or alternative bracelet, to change the look and feel even further.

The Psychological Effect of Ripples

And, as the ripples spread out under the anti-glare sapphire crystal, there's a sense that they'll keep going beyond the elegant confines of the 316L marine grade stainless steel case.

A suggestion of a positive psychological impact way beyond the physical boundaries of the watch.

In psychology, rippling refers to the fact that you create - often without your conscious intent or knowledge - concentric circles of influence that may affect others for years, even for generations. And the Ripple does just this.

Meaningful as well as Mesmerising

In fact,wherever and whenever you wear your Ripple, people will love talking to you about it.

This is not just because of its striking looks and features, but also because,when you invest in one, you'll also be investing in children and young people in need.
