Forest Hare

Among Morris & Co.'s celebrated designs is the graceful hare motif, a symbol of the enduring pull of the natural world. The Forest Hare watches carry it onto the dial, where August Berg's minimal Danish design meets Morris & Co.'s artistry.

They are made for pausing, noticing and living timefully: a little piece of the forest to wear every day.

August Berg x Morris & Co.

An exclusive collaboration between a Danish watch brand and Morris & Co., the British Arts & Crafts house built on William Morris's designs. Morris & Co.'s studio worked with August Berg to pick out the most recognisable parts of its archive prints, such as the cheeky thrush of Strawberry Thief or the bold symmetry of Pimpernel, and rescale them for a watch dial.

Morris believed in having nothing at home that isn't useful or beautiful. The collaboration brings that idea to the wrist, and it fits August Berg's own philosophy of timefulness: design made to last.

The Gift of Time

Every August Berg watch is built around timefulness: appreciating the time we have and choosing how to spend it. Cases are surgical-grade stainless steel, dials sit under anti-reflective, scratch-resistant glass, and each watch runs on a Japanese quartz movement. It arrives in a reusable, FSC-certified bamboo box, and delivery is carbon neutral.

For every watch sold, August Berg gives a child 6 months of quality education through the Human Practice Foundation, a Danish non-profit, and with every 20,000 watches sold, builds a school.

  • Small, cute, a little odd

    I am a man and I got the smaller watch, and the watch itself is nice, but it definitely looks a little undersized compared to my arm. The watch quality is very nice and people really liked seeing it. My only complaint is that the band has holes in dented on the bottom but fabric with no holes on the top so to Latch it you have to push the metal piece through the cording fabric at the risk of tearing it over time or stretching the cording. This seems like an odd design decision.
