A tribute to Britannia
Britannia, a symbol of our great nation – part of British heritage and present on our currency for over 300 years, has been minted on British coinage for the very last time to make way for a new “modern” look for our coins. It was this historic change – the biggest change to our currency since decimalisation, that inspired our craftsmen to create a unique timepiece, The Britannia Penny Watch – a lasting tribute to this national treasure. This quality Swiss movement timepiece features a genuine pre-decimal Britannia penny as the dial, lavishly plated in 22-carat gold. The watch face is set in a gold-plated, stainless steel case with an anti-allergenic, brown leather strap. Each coin has its own story to tell having been in circulation for many years. This charm is highlighted by slightimperfections which show on some coins, making each timepiece unique and a real collector’s item.

Limited Edition
Britannia first appeared on British currency in 1672, a date marked by the limited edition of The Britannia Penny Watch – just 1672 will ever be crafted, each one engraved on the caseback with it’s own unique number and the words “Farewell Britannia”, the perfect finishing touch to this timeless piece of British history.
