KONSTANTIN CHAYKIN
Grimaldi the Clown is the third clown-themed design in the Wristmon collection, paying tribute to Joseph Grimaldi, the actor who popularized the modern clown. Designed by Konstantin Chaykin in 2021, it combines elements of the 2017 Joker watch with Grimaldi’s stage face paint.
This limited-edition wristwatch, a part of Konstantin Chaykin’s Wristmons collection, features a 42mm stainless steel case with a double-wave relief pattern on the dial and letters on the bezel. It’s powered by the Caliber K.07-0, a self-winding movement with a unique Joker-themed display for hours, minutes, and moon phase. The hour and minute subdials resemble the character’s eyes, while the moonphase indicator looks like a clown’s smiling mouth with Grimaldi’s famous catchphrase.
The watch is a commemorative piece to honor Grimaldi, father of modern clownery. Konstantin Chaykin, an independent watchmaker since 2003, designed this exceptional timepiece to blend art and horology.
This Konstantin Chaykin Clown, is truly a gem in exceptional, like-new condition. Originally purchased in 2022, this watch has been meticulously cared for by its previous owner, resulting in a timepiece that appears virtually untouched. Upon close inspection, it becomes evident that there are no discernible signs of wear on the case, glass, or strap. It’s highly likely that this watch has been worn only sparingly since its initial purchase, preserving its pristine appearance. This offering includes not only the exquisite timepiece but also the complete package, featuring the original box, outer box, booklets, tags, and warranty.
