Originally designed in 2017 in collaboration with artist Edward Carvalho-Monaghan, Chaos Window was created to challenge the conventions of watch design.

Inspired by music, architecture and philosophy, Edward made something deliberately unpredictable: a watch that would make you stop, look closer and question how a watch is supposed to work.

Now, almost a decade later, Chaos Window has been given a new life by Mr Jones Watches Senior Gilding and Printing Technician: Giulia Cacciuttolo.

Drawn to Edward’s wonderfully tangled approach to design, Giulia chose not to simplify the chaos, but to embrace it. Her interpretation builds on the intricate layers of the original, bringing her own sculptural sensibility into the design.

Almost every component has been transformed through intricate gilding, with 23.5ct yellow gold, rose gold and palladium leaf adding flashes of colour and texture throughout the watch.

Details have also been added to the glass and discs, while a marbled silver leaf background, applied by hand, gives each watch its own distinctive pattern. No two watches are quite the same.

The result is a Chaos Window that feels both familiar and entirely new. Edward’s wonderfully unconventional design is still at its heart, but now layered with Giulia’s own artistic language.

How to read the time

• If you look through the window, you'll see the line of ships on a horizon. The angle of this horizon marks the hours and the ships tell you which end to read.
• Flames emerging from a serpent’s nostrils show you the minutes.
• The seconds hand is a square in the middle of the window.
