Swatch x Magritte
Surrealist painter René Magritte is known for his playful provocation and witty humor. To mark the 125-year anniversary of his birth, two watches translate his most famous paintings into wearable art.
LA TRAHISON DES IMAGES
Magritte’s iconic puns adorn the strap of this watch with humorous irony while silver-colored hands glisten on the dial. One thing is for sure: this is not a pipe!
LE FILS DE L'HOMME BY RENÉ MAGRITTE
This self-portrait depicts a man in a bowler hat obscured by a green apple. Indulge your love for playful provocation with a cheeky watch that is more than meets the eye.
