Bamford Watch Department - Time in Focus

The name Bamford Watch Department is synonymous with uncompromising style and quality. We are proud to be the first company to personalize a range of steel sports watches. The business was started around 10 years ago and has been based around the personalization of various iconic sports watches from some of the major brands in the watch world.

The Bamford Watch Department customization is undertaken independently of the various watch brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audermas Piguet, Heuer etc. This means that while the original brands warranties are no longer applicable, your watch is covered by the Bamford Watch Departments own full two year guarantee.

Bamford Watch Department works independently from the major watch brands much in the same way as Brabus might customize a Mercedes Benz. We offer our clients a range of watches customized to their own specification or a choice of designs from our own customized range.

We are driven by our passion for engineering excellence and innovation. Inspired by the demand of our clients to wear watches that are exclusive and individual. We have also created within our various ranges some special limited edition series based around the most desirable of sports watches from Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet.

Bamford Watches are available with a wide range of personalized elements, including our own unique formulae of military grade PVD and bespoke dial color options service.

IF YOU CAN IMAGINE IT THEN WE CAN CREATE IT!

Sexual Chronicles of a French Family



Breakfast time where the awkward silence is sometimes a burden, dinner where everything is discussed except sex, the routine of a contemporary family is disrupted when Romain, the youngest son, is caught masturbating in Biology class, filming the act with his iPhone. He is going to be suspended from school. Romain explains to his mother that it was a dare the other students have amongst themselves, just for fun. He just stupidly got caught. Sex having been a taboo subject in the family up to now, it suddenly becomes the main subject as we become involved in the intimate lives of each element of this family: the parents, the 18, 20 and 22-year-old children, and the grandfather.

Angel Rose


Terrormisu! features an all-star cast of clubland personalities from past till present. Not only does the film star London’s current creatures of the night, but also, a few living legends of the Blitz era; a cross-generational nod to the scene that started it all. Adorned with surreal creations from Carianne Moore and milliner Mich Dulce, we witness this cast of creeps collectively summon “The Spirit” (played by Daniel Lismore) to the table. Thus we are served a perfect metaphor that echoes the ethos of the film: celebration of a community that embraces the creative spirit.
Terrormisu! was premiered April 27th 2012 at The Last Tuesday Society in London


The Green Carnation video, we see Angel Rose’s disembodied head play the part of a traditional horror host a la Elvira – but with a twist. Instead of camp jokes, she muses on death and predicts the inevitable doom of decadence as her beautiful assistant, played by Josh Quinton, gazes on despondently.
The Green Carnation showcases her unique verse and dedicated performance in this spoken word-cum-karaoke act. Referencing the gothic romanticism of Poe, Blake and even Shakespeare in her writing, she contorts her hedonism into poetry. All sung to the tune of Diana Ross “Aint No Mountain High Enough”, she is both disco diva and Disney villain in this surrealist pop video.
Angel Rose adopts a ghostly green countenance created by Illamasqua make up artist Mika Johnson for her role as dead diva, alluding to the idea of an undead Whitney or Amy. However, when we see her decapitated body lounging on its drugged out deathbed, the lovesick plea of “having nobody” becomes a visual play on words.
The Green Carnation was premiered on April 27th 2012 at The Last Tuesday Society in London

A FILM BY PAZ KATRINA JIMENEZ
PKJIMENEZ.COM
___
A JOURNEY is the new fashion film by Paz Katrina Jimenez (Art Director & Designer), which presents the beginning of a multimedia-based journey through the deep world of aesthetics.
Paz Katrina Jimenez presents in the fashion film her own vision of the very personal topic of depression. She uses her experience as choreograph and designer and realises her art direction in stage direction. Each phase of the emotional journey of depression is being dissolved and replaced by an expressive new motion. The audience is lead into an illusionary world, which is characterised by a morphing melody and the usage of acoustic elements. For the fashion film Jimenez created a look, that adapts to the different situations of the process of depression. Especially noticeable is the usage of White throughout the film.
In the course of the 11th festival for Fashion and Photography in 2011 Paz Katrina Jimenez already dealt with a very confronting topic in her CAUSA fashion film.
The film experimentalises with the sinister and dangerous game of fake aesthetics, temptation and deterrence. In A JOURNEY Jimenez carries on the unique way of visualisation of an intimate created aesthetic.
