A limited-edition capsule collection with Boris Pjanic and REM Scandinavian Watch Straps

STOCKHOLM, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pedral Watches is proud to unveil Watches & Art: The Best of Both Worlds—a rare, design-driven capsule collection that unites the precision of mechanical timekeeping with the expressive depth of contemporary art. This collaboration brings together Pedral Watches, artist and independent watch dealer Boris Pjanic, and the renowned artisanal leathermakers REM Straps.

At the centre of the collection are five unique dials, each derived from an original painting by Boris Pjanic. A respected name in the independent watch scene and a lifelong artist, Boris translates his brushstrokes into highly detailed, 3D-printed dial artworks—preserving texture, nuance, and emotion in sculptural form.

Each timepiece is housed in Pedral's signature Artefact case, celebrated for its refined 39mm proportions and balanced silhouette. Paired with organically tanned, laser-etched leather straps by REM, each watch becomes a wearable expression of craftsmanship and creativity.

Technical upgrades include a Miyota Cal. 9039 automatic movement, regulated in-house to ±10 seconds/day, diamond-cut skeleton hands with heat-blued accents, and hand-applied indices. These enhancements elevate each piece, blending engineering excellence with artistic intent.

This edition is strictly limited—just 15 pieces per dial, each one individually numbered and unique. Early clients will receive a complimentary pair of bespoke REM straps. All watches come with a 1-year international warranty.

Driving Home
Quiet and contemplative—rooted in 1990s memories of night drives and moments of reflection.

Geometry In Play
A dynamic composition balancing freedom and control. Shapes layered with playful, intentional rhythm.

Perpetual Autumn
A warm, symbolic meditation on memory and change. Textured, thoughtful, and richly emotional.
