WatchTime US recently featured the Peninsula Carbon, the latest addition to Bangalore Watch Company's Peninsula collection. The piece written by Caleb Anderson covers how the watch expands the Peninsula line with a direct urban-focused concept, using recovered carbon black derived from end-of-life industrial byproducts as both a material element and a thematic starting point.
The article explores how Bangalore Watch Company, an independent Indian watch brand founded in 2018 by husband-and-wife team Nirupesh Joshi and Mercy Amalraj, has built its identity around automatic watches that tell stories of modern India, with collections drawing from aviation, cricket, space, and the outdoors. With the Peninsula Carbon, that storytelling turns its lens toward cities and the carbon they produce.
We have always believed that great watches can be built around great stories. From cricket and aviation to space exploration and the outdoors, every Bangalore Watch Company collection is rooted in something real. With the Peninsula Carbon, we take that further, acknowledging the world cities have built and the material they leave behind. Read the full feature by WatchTime US here.
