QUICK SUMMARY
Mr Jones Watches is reviving two watch designs from its archive.
Both limited to 100 pieces each, the new watches include redesigned versions of Dawn West Dusk East and Analogon (Printers Edition).
The phrase ‘old is gold’ has never felt more true than now. Mr Jones Watches is reviving two of its older watch designs from its archives, and giving them a new, fresh twist for 2026.
The first watch to be revived and redesigned is Dawn West Dusk East. First launched back in 2011, the original version of the timepiece from Mr Jones Watches featured a single aperture to mark the time and change colour as it moved around the dial. Previously, the dial had four colours that it would cycle through – black, silver, gold and red.
For this new version, one of Mr Jones Watches’ print technicians, Tanith has updated the colours and background. The dial now has a ‘moody’ landscape and subtle patterning that makes it look like a ripple on the moon. The edge or bezel also has words looping around the dial, including ‘birth’, ‘madness’, ‘curiosity’, ‘peace’ and 'vengeance’.
The second watch is Analogon (Printers Edition) and while I normally don’t gravitate towards cartoon-like designs, I think this revival is my favourite. Analogon came out in 2014, and like other Mr Jones Watches models, it had an unusual way to tell the time.
Rocky, another print technician from Mr Jones Watches has kept this unique time-telling but given the dial a complete makeover. A robot face still takes up the majority of the dial but compared to the original, this Analogon (Printers Edition) looks much happier.
The face is made from cogs and screws, and the use of red, blue, green and yellow makes it look more pop art-like. To tell the time, it’s all in the robot’s mouth, as the upper row of teeth displays the hours while the lower jaw shows the minutes.
The Analogon (Printers Edition) isn’t small by any means and sits in a 46mm stainless steel case. It’s powered by a single jewel quartz mechanism and is waterproof to five ATM.
Launching today, both Dawn West Dusk East and Analogon (Printers Edition) are limited to just 100 pieces each. Pricing starts at £225 / $295 / €285 at Mr Jones Watches.
