Made in collaboration with Maria Elena Holly to tribute to Buddy Holly\u2019s influences with many well known artists such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Elton John. A special tribute to selling each one of these watches is that a portion of it will be donated to the Buddy Holly Education Foundation, so by bagging yourself one of these attractive watches will not only satisfy the inner rockstar within you, but you will also contribute towards a worthy cause. The dial of this watch features a pale blue, one of Buddy Holly\u2019s favourite colours, which encircles the rim and a pair of glasses sit on the sub dial, which is an iconic emblem to the musician. The oversized 9 is to resemble Buddy Holly\u2019s lucky number and the style of this watch certainly makes it one of a kind.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions about the watches in this blog then please don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch via our website, or via phone on 01926 298499.
