Marc Ecko Watches
Marc Ecko watches offer street smart style, direct from the harsh but glamorous streets of the Big Apple. Since 1993, the designer has become one of the world’s most influential new talents, and his fresh and modern vision is reflected in his range of must-have fashion timepieces.
The brand is noted for its social activism such as campaigns to end corporal punishment in American Schools. It has also taken on high profile legal challenges, such as challenging The City of New York in its plan to ban the sale of spray paints and broad tipped markers to those under the age of 21. The company paid for the challenge on the grounds of damage to the work of artists who would be restricted in their choice of media.
Marc Ecko watches - Exuberant design
The man behind the brand is also known for a range of media stunts/work of arts depending on your point of view. Most famously he released grainy security camera footage of what appeared to be a masked figure painting graffiti on to the side of the US presidents plane Air Force One.
After prompting US security chiefs to check their arrangements it was revealed that it was an elaborate hoax conducted by the fashion brand using a repainted jet of the same type as the official mode of transport of the Commander in Chief.
As you would expect from a brand with such an In-your-face attitude these Marc Ecko watches fuse the same energy, urbanity and smart elegance the designer brings to his original clothing lines. With both men’s and women’s models available, there is great diversity in the Marc Ecko watches collection: from practical, sporty chronograph watches to jewel-encrusted, sparkling beauties.
