Model Highlights

Supporting the Hakuna Mipaka Oasis

Supporting the Hakuna Mipaka Oasis

The Hakuna Mipaka Collection represents wildlife without harming it, as it is completely free from animal products—an extension of our promise in July 2021 to discontinue our use of leather goods for all new product launches and phase out leather straps for all existing models.

Leopard print-inspired design

Leopard print-inspired design

This 40mm Independence makes an unforgettable impression with its leopard-print pattern on the black dial. The black, animal-friendly rubber strap enhances the wild aesthetic with its velour-like leopard-spot pattern. This patented texture, created through a precise laser process, features 0.6mm rubber hairs for a uniquely soft feel.

Rainbow crystals bezel

Rainbow crystals bezel

To tell the Hakuna Mipaka story, we’ve adorned the watch with a rainbow-set bezel, decorated with 60 high-quality coloured crystals. Carefully hand-crafted, these crystals were chosen not only for their captivating brilliance but also for being a sustainable and ethical alternative to mined gemstones.
