In the spring of 2017, independent watchmaker Konstantin Chaykin first introduced to the public the Joker watch, with its stand-out and unquestionably memorable anthropomorphic dial. This brand-new model marked the beginning of the Wristmons ("monsters on the wrist") collection, which includes more than 20 timepieces with different designs and unique complications. In 2022, which is also the remarkable 5th anniversary of the collection, Chaykin decided to introduce the first female Wristmon, the amusing supervillain – Harley Quinn.
“In the complex character of Harley Quinn, I felt a unique style. She is a bright female character, rebellious and audacious, which is very close to the idea of a watch as a kinematic art object with a direct emotional impact. She seems to me to be a compliment to and a reflection of the Joker watch. Harley Quinn’s ability to be different, to stand out from the crowd, and her ability to enjoy it – that’s exactly what I expect from myself and my clients.” – Chaykin explained his choice.
In September 2022, the Harley Quinn watch have been shortlisted for the most prestigious international Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève in the Ladies’ category.
The watch is issued in a limited edition of 28 pieces. All the pieces are reserved. To get the opportunity to order one of the serial models of the next release apply for the waiting list.
The list of details that form Harley Quinn's unique style continues with the small black mask, puffy eyelashes, and perhaps one of the most noticeable details of Harley Quinn's strange, crazy, but so harmonious and intriguing look - the black heart-shaped tattoo on her cheek. All these elements look exceedingly awesome on the wristmon's dial background that combined two types of guilloché.
The design is completed by an exclusive collector's strap with red and black diamond motifs. It was designed by Konstantin Chaykin for this particular model. The strap is made of high quality leather.
Note that a classic red strap with red stitching comes with the watch by default. Collector's version of the strap is sold separately.

This is the first female character in the Wristmons collection, and so Konstantin Chaykin decided to endow the watch with a case reduced to 40mm in diameter. The creator is far from positioning this model as a ladies’ piece, though he nevertheless invites wonderful women to the Wristmons universe he has created.
