Exploring RJ Watches

Jewellery & Watch News

Stepping outside of the box and into a whole new dimension, Romain Jerome – now abbreviated to RJ – is famed for their unconventional and mesmerising luxury watch designs. Their extraordinary collections are inspired by all the things that excite us most, from space adventures to comic book heroes to arcade game legends, all while integrating present day design with Swiss watch technology. These captivating watches almost make us feel like children again, allowing us to channel fun, adventure and individuality.

RJ watches are still fairly new to the industry, having been originally founded in 2004 and relaunched again in 2018 under the new creative direction of Marco Tedeschi. It was quickly decided that Romain Jerome would become responsible for their own in-house movements where they would be manufactured at the RJ watch Studio in Geneva, Switzerland.  This daring move paid off and now all RJ watches boast exquisite manufacture movements created by the brand themselves, a feat that deserves to be celebrated.

Romain Jerome is also famed for bringing history-making material onto the wrist with its DNA Concept watches. They have used steel from the Titanic ship, dust from the actual moon and remnants from the Apollo 11 space craft which was the first that landed man on the moon, all within their remarkable designs. It is easy to see how RJ watches have become so coveted by collectors, giving us all a chance to wear a piece of history on the wrist.

The RJ Collaboration watches are instant favourites for us at C W Sellors. Working in collaboration with the likes of DC Comics, Marvel and Nintendo, RJ have made their own mark in modern watchmaking with watches inspired by Batman, Spiderman, Super Mario, Space Invaders and Pac-Man. These captivating designs boast complex and colourful dials decorated with all of favourite characters alongside chucky case sizes and sporty straps.

Now let’s talk about all the latest RJ watch collections in a bit more detail…

RJ ARRAW Watches

The brand’s core collection, the Romain Jerome ARRAW watch boasts distinctive and breathtaking designs suitable for both men and women instantly recognisable for its RJ Bumpers and ingenious interchangeable strap system. The RJ ARRAW Marine watch was the first addition to the collection providing a cutting edge chronograph with sophisticated dials and bezels – some of which are coated in a dazzling array of diamonds.

We also have the RJ ARRAW 6919 watch which is a more recent addition, showcasing the beautiful patented RJ Moon Phase mechanism. This remarkable piece of technology shows a 3D moon rotating 360 degrees at the top of the dial for a complete cycle of 29.5 days. Another recent addition to the RJ ARRAW range is the Star Twist watch available in titanium, steel and gold. These breathtaking timepieces are a world first, with a dial made of mother of pearl and four unique layers of paint to create a shiny effect the looks exactly like an endless universe and moving galaxies.

RJ Steampunk Watches

Originally evolving from the famous RJ Titanium-DNA watch, the RJ Steampunk collection aims to emulate machines and engines of the early 20th century. Yet despite their historic inspiration, each RJ Steampunk watch has a very contemporary feel about it, whether that be its chucky sized case or its complex, skeletonised dial.

The RJ Steampunk Tourbillon Power Reserve watch is one that must be admired. The RJ200-TS Mechanical tourbillon movement at its core has been manufactured by the brand themselves and is considered one of the most accurate calibres in the industry. The anchor-shaped tourbillon cage is displayed beautifully at 6 o clock alongside a sleek power reserve indicator. There is also the RJ Steampunk Chronograph Rusted Metal watch which features an extraordinary case in either 18ct red gold, titanium, PVD black steel with a beautifully rustic oxidized steel bezel.

Available in both gold and steel, the RJ Skylab Black watches also showcase the recognisable RJ Bumpers alongside circular satin-brushed bezels and anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass.

The RJ Skylab watch collection is also home to two of the brand’s biggest collaborations: the Skylab Batman and the Skylab Spiderman. The RJ Batman watch boasts a completely skeletonised movement merged with a metallised image of Gotham City’s map which is formed on the sapphire crystal case back.

The dial is bought to life by one of the game’s very own levels with a pixelated construction site showing Donkey Kong and Mario at the centre. We are also treated to a stunning case back decorated with a Donkey Kong medallion.
