Marloe Watch Company Astro Watches

If you find the Space Race and attempts to be the first to land on the moon captivating (as we do here at The Coolector), there is a series of watches from Marloe Watch Company that will be right up your street. Namely, their newly launched Astro Watches which are a celebration of man’s attempts to land on the moon back in the 1960s. The Astro Collection takes inspiration from all eras of the space race – from humankind’s first tentative steps into the universe; Sputnik, Gagarin and Valentina Tereshkova – the first woman to travel to space.

Priced at £349, there are four different watches to choose from within Marloe’s Astro series of timepieces – namely, the Eagle, Valentina, Stellar and Futura – and each packs their own unique visual punch that’s hard to ignore. The historical importance of the television to witness these ground-breaking astrological events, is why Marloe have been inspired to replicate the squircle outline found on vintage televisions for the case profile of the Astro. It’s a nod to history, looking on in awe at what we can achieve as a human species by working together.
