Ryan Claytor
Ryan, who has a deep love for pinball, considers the links between the game and time:
“Pinball is essentially a game of timing: flip a fraction of a second too soon or too late and you'll miss your intended target.
In its more transcendent moments though, a game of pinball can almost mystically remove the player from any concept of time.
When engrossed in a game where shots are being hit, progress being made and previously locked achievements are realized, pinball has the capacity to transport the player out of time entirely.
Rest assured, though, that "Ricochet" will be a faithful temporal reminder once you resurface from this engrossing experience!”

Shipping guide for t-shirts:
All t-shirts are printed by us and shipped from our workshop in London. This means if you place an order for both a watch and t-shirt(s), they will be shipped together via DHL. Delivery times for these can be found on our shipping guide here.
If you order a t-shirt without a watch, it will be shipped via a Royal Mail tracked service which usually takes a little longer. You can see an estimated timescale when you input your address at the checkout.
Shipping guide for straps (unless purchased with a watch):
Free Royal Mail shipping, 3-7 working days (depending on location)
These delivery times are a guide based on the DHL, FedEx and Royal Mail terms of service, products may, in some unusual cases take longer to arrive. If this happens, please get in touch.
Return your watch for an exchange
We are happy to exchange unworn watches.
Fastening the watch will cause damage to the leather. If this is the case, we charge for the watch strap (or we can put the worn strap on the exchanged watch for free).
Please email us directly if you think your watch is faulty.
Return your watch for a refund
To return for a full refund, you have 30 days if purchased online. After this time we can offer an exchange if your watch hasn’t been worn.
If you purchased your watch in-store, we can offer an exchange or store credit only. This is because you’ve seen the watch in person and had the opportunity to try it on. Please let us know if you’re purchasing as a gift.

EU and International returns
Please send the watch to this address:

This is essential otherwise an import duty will be levied which you will be liable for (there is no way for us to reclaim this charge).

Made in London
The individual colours in the design were mixed and printed one by one.
The precious metal foils were applied by hand, cleaned and backed with a varnish for protection.
Each watch was then hand assembled before going through our strict quality control process.
Powered by your movement
Automatic mechanical
This means your watch has no battery, instead it's powered by the movement of your wrist!
If you don’t wear your watch for a while (24 - 48 hours), then the movement will run out of power and your watch will stop.
When this happens, you can manually wind it by turning the winding crown on the side of the watch clockwise (20-30 times) or just wear it to get it running again.
Have you seen the XL version?
Ricochet XL
The big and bold 45mm case is just the right size for the larger wrist.
You'll notice this eye-catching version of Ricochet has an additional player too!
