“In silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and watch how the pattern improves.” - Rumi ✍🏾

“The map of the world is drawn by travelers and nomads. Built into it are steps, nights and days, stations and encounters.” - Jasna Horvat 🌏

The dial of the Bukhara timepiece is derived from an interior dome of the central mosque complex of the city of Bukhara - the fabled Po-i-Kaylan built in 1514.

Darkened at the edges - the appearance of the dial evokes standing at the center of a dome and looking upward. Evoking the sense of awe and peace from standing within the Maasjid itself. 🕌

The clear display caseback is marked with the iconic Kalyan Minaret originally built in 1127 by emperor Mohammad Arslan Khan. The tower was famously spared by Mongol invaders and remains as testament to the strength and resilience of the city.

The tan and brown crisscrossing pattern evokes the trodden earthen pathways of the Silk Roads which defined the city of Bukhara for centuries. A city that was a meeting point for scholars, travelers, merchants and artisans.

The display caseback reveals a custom engraved blue rotor - colored in tribute to the Zerafshan River - which made the fertility of this oasis city possible. 💧

We’re excited to announce two new watch offerings in time for Ramadan and Eid! ☪️

The pattern on the sunburst-hued Zafaraan timepiece is derived from the intricate tilework of Hisham’s Palace at Jericho - located in modern Palestine. 🇵🇸

Rendered in a stunning hue, the watch’s name and color are a tribute to Palestinian Saffron - a traditional spice harvested for generations particularly among the mountains and valleys of the Nablus region.

The case back features an emblem of an olive tree filled with birds with the words of Palestinian poet Marwan Makhoul engraved above it: “In order to hear the birds, the warplanes must be silent.” 🕊️

Imbued with mission - the purchase of this timepiece contributes to direct charitable support to the Palestine Children Relief Fund (www.prcf.net).

Additionally we are proud to introduce the second piece in our Silk Roads Series - the Bukhara - with it’s dial derived from an interior dome of the central mosque complex of that city - the fabled Po-i-Kaylan built in 1514. 🕌

The tan and brown crisscrossing dial pattern evokes the trodden earthen pathways of the Silk Roads which defined the city of Bukhara for centuries. A city that was a meeting point for scholars, travelers, merchants and artisans.

Darkened at the edges - the appearance of the dial evokes standing at the center of a dome and looking upward. Evoking the sense of awe and peace from standing within the Maasjid itself.

The clear display caseback is marked with the iconic Kalyan Minaret and reveals a custom engraved blue rotor - colored in tribute to the Zerafshan River - which made the fertility of this oasis city possible.🌴

The dial surface is itself fully lumed for stunning night time effect. 🌌

Can a timepiece make a journey even more remarkable? We certainly believe so. ⏳✨

We were delighted to see a trio of happy customers take their Castle & Gazelle watches to the breathtaking Registan Square in Samarkand — a timeless crossroads of culture, craftsmanship, and discovery. 🌍🏛️

Once the beating heart of the ancient Silk Road, Registan Square has witnessed centuries of travelers, traders, and stories passing through its magnificent madrasas. To see one of our timepieces return to a place so deeply rooted in history and inspiration is truly special. 🕌🕰️

Thank you for sharing your journey with us and for reminding us that great design, like great travel, connects past and present in meaningful ways 💫⌚️
