Mysore Clock Tower - Dodda Gadiyara

Standing tall in the heart of Mysuru, the Doddagadiyara (Mysore Clock Tower) a symbol of the city’s timeless elegance and architectural heritage since the early 20th century. Renowned for its four-faced clock and distinctive Indo-European design, it has served as a landmark and silent witness to Mysuru’s transformation through generations. This watch project pays tribute to the Doddagadiyara by translating its architectural character and historical significance into a wearable timepiece. The design draws cues from the clock tower’s bold numerals, commanding presence, and enduring legacy, creating a watch that celebrates both the art of timekeeping and the cultural heritage of Namma Mysuru. More than a watch, it is a tribute to a landmark that has measured the passage of time for the city for over a century.
