The Funk Has Arrived.

Today's watches are designed to sit neatly on the wrist. And then there’s this—a watch that wraps around your finger, because why limit timekeeping to just one part of your body?

This is an incredibly rare find from the 1970s, born from a collaboration between Bueche Girod, the Swiss watchmaker known for its refined, ultra-thin dress watches, and Roy King, a British jewelry designer with a penchant for the extraordinary. King was a favorite of rock stars and the avant-garde elite, creating custom pieces that blurred the lines between jewelry and timekeeping.

At the heart of this piece—both figuratively and literally—is a stunning tiger’s eye dial. No numerals, no indices, no distractions. Just an uninterrupted expanse of rich caramel and deep brown striations that shift beautifully under the light. The stone is flawless, crack-free, and perfectly framed by an 18k yellow gold case with a textured, hand-hammered finish that adds both depth and character.

And here’s the wild part: inside this tiny case sits a full-fledged Swiss mechanical movement. Manually wound, 17 jewels, signed by Bueche Girod. The crown, neatly tucked at 12 o’clock, is discreetly marked with the BG signature—a reminder that, yes, this is a serious watch, not just a novelty.

"This is an instant conversation starter. Expect questions, compliments, and the occasional ‘Wait… is that a watch on your finger?'

The entire piece weighs a substantial 20 grams, giving it a presence that’s both luxurious and practical. Currently a size 56, but your trusted jeweler can adjust it if needed.

These days, we’ve seen watches worn in every way imaginable—chokers, anklets, pendants—so in many ways, this ring was ahead of its time. A conversation piece, a collector’s dream, and, frankly, just a really fun way to keep track of the hours.

We’re beyond thrilled to offer such a rare and exquisite example of 1970s watchmaking ingenuity. It’s not every day you come across something like this—and that’s exactly why we had to have it.

This is watch ring is in great condition.

The ring retains its original lines.

The tiger eye dial is perfect with no cracks. The Bueche Girord logo has slightly faded over time but can still be seen.

Inner band hallmarks are deep and clearly visible.

Manual wound movement keeping accurate time.
