Léger Watch

Details

Add a pop of 20th-century colour to your wrist with this inspired modern watch design.

This watch features details from Divers, Blue and Black (1942–43) in The Met collection. In this painting by Fernand Léger (French, 1881–1955), figures plunge into broad swatches of color like swimmers in a crowded pool. Its inspiration dates to 1940, while Léger was in Marseille awaiting passage to the United States, where he stayed until the end of World War II. Léger made about 25 works on the theme of the swimming pool.
