Xavier Broche

Xavier explains his inspiration behind the design:

Forests are full of mysteries. In the dark our mind plays tricks on us and tiny noises can seem terrifying!

Night Howl was created in close collaboration with the team at Mr Jones Watches.

We wanted to create something that evoked the spirit of the forest at night, with some of the animals for whom the dark forest is the safest place.

The man endlessly circles the tree searching for a ghost, sometimes he catches it in the beam of his torch, but can he be sure of what he saw?

Xavier Broche is a children's book Author-Illustrator based in France.

He has produced many works for “Les Éditions Lapin”, mainly as part of a series of collaborations with Alice Chaa, a writer for children.

Feathers and brushes, felt-tip pens and inks, the tools vary and the themes change according to the book.

Xavier has explored a diverse range of topics in his work: from adoption to travel; fear of the dark to learning numbers and even following the adventures of an unconventional princess...

In addition to published works, Xavier has also collaborated on radio shows and live drawing events, such as Podcast Science.

Shipping guide for watches:

Mexico: $13 shipping to Mexico: DHL Express, 2-3 working days

Shipping guide for t-shirts: 

Our t-shirts are printed by us and shipped from our workshop in London. This means if you place an order for both a watch and t-shirt(s), they will be shipped together via an express service. Delivery times for these can be found here.

If you order a t-shirt without a watch, it will be shipped via a Royal Mail tracked service which usually takes a little longer. You can see an estimated timescale when you input your address at the checkout.

Shipping guide for bands (unless purchased with a watch):

- FREE Royal Mail tracked, 5-10 working days

During busy sale periods dispatch may take a little longer (this is quite rare). These delivery times are a guide based on the Fedex and Royal Mail terms of service, products may, in some unusual cases take longer to arrive. If this happens, please get in touch. 

We are happy to exchange unworn watches.

Fastening the watch will cause damage to the leather. If this is the case, we charge for the watch strap (or we can put the worn strap on the exchanged watch for free).

Please email us directly if you think your watch is faulty: info@mrjoneswatches.com

Return for a refund

To return for a full refund, you have 30 days if purchased online. After this time we can offer an exchange if your watch hasn’t been worn.

If you purchased your watch in-store, we can offer an exchange or store credit only. This is because you’ve seen the watch in person and had the opportunity to try it on. Please let us know if you’re purchasing as a gift.

We do not cover shipping costs for unwanted items from outside the UK.
