For the watch aficionado or art collector with a taste for the unconventional, the Maurice Lacroix AIKON Automatic Wotto Limited Edition is a wearable masterpiece that demands attention. Limited to just 1,000 pieces, this isn’t your average timepiece—it’s a bold collision of Swiss precision, urban culture, and street art ingenuity. Part of the Urban Tribe series, this striking 42mm steel ticker fuses the chaotic whimsy of British artist Craig “Wotto” Watkins with Maurice Lacroix’s watchmaking pedigree, creating something that’s as much gallery-worthy as it is wrist-ready.
The story starts in 2021, when Hungarian artist @Timeengraver took an AIKON watch, etched it with his vision, and shared it on Instagram. That spark lit a fire—Maurice Lacroix caught wind, collaborated on limited runs, and now, years later, Wotto’s unmistakable doodles take center stage. Known for his vibrant, quirky characters—a mix of cute oddities and emotional chaos—Wotto transforms this AIKON into a canvas of mushrooms, skateboarding ghosts, and lightning bolts. The case, bezel, and bracelet are intricately engraved with his signature motifs, each link a hieroglyph in a story only he could tell. Polished steel gleams against the etched designs, giving it depth that practically begs for a closer look.
Then there’s the dial: a first for the Urban Tribe series. Wotto got free rein, and he delivered. Against a minimalist gray backdrop, a swirl of mischievous characters dances in a yellow-to-blue gradient—eye-catching, playful, and unapologetic. The indexes? Subtle metal tips that know better than to steal the show. Flip it over, and the sapphire crystal caseback reveals the ML115 automatic caliber, humming with a 38-hour power reserve. Water-resistant to 200 meters, it’s as functional as it is fearless.
At $3,300, this isn’t just a watch—it’s a statement. Whether you’re a collector of horology or a devotee of urban art, the AIKON Automatic Wotto Limited Edition bridges both worlds with swagger and soul. Only 1,000 exist. Don’t sleep on it.
