Accurist Watches

Watches on the web

An iconic British watch brand.

Established in 1946, Accurist is one of the market leading watch brands in the UK, steeped in history. Always with its finger on the cultural pulse, Accurist recruited John Cleese at the peak of his fame for an award winning 1978 advertising campaign, and in 1986 became the first ever official sponsor of British Telecom’s Speaking Clock, which received almost 3 billion calls and was given the title of the “greatest sponsorship deal of all time”.

Accurist was rebranded to stand out from its competition, and to reposition itself as luxury-made, affordable-distinctive, contemporary British style that lasts from the real watchmakers.

To help reposition the brand as modern and fashionable Accurist commissioned a complete rebrand. As part of this relaunch process we were invited to design and produce the new website.
