Missoni partners with Timex Group

Missoni has announced a new license agreement with Timex Group that will see the development and distribution of a new timepiece collection. 

The line of watches will “combine the impeccable precision of a Swiss Made movement with a rigorously Made in Italy design”, and feature characteristic Missoni additions such as zigzag patterns, combinations of textures, materials and colors, prints and lettering. 

The new collection will be available from Missoni boutiques, authorised retailers and online from Fall 2020.
