Dennison and Collectability unveil their second collaboration

he 2026 Edition Oblique Collection will be produced as a limited edition available to pre-order for one week only from May 27 until June 3. This model will be exclusively made for the Dennison + Collectability collaboration and offers two distinctive dial options, in two different colourways, each with its own personality.

The story of this new release began in Geneva last fall, on a single piece of paper. Inspired by their mutual love of 1960s asymmetric design, and by a shared desire to create something distinctive, emotional, and accessible, the idea took shape almost instantly. Swiss designer Emmanuel Gueit brought the sketch to life, and it was immediately clear that something special and something very different had been born.

This new 2026 Edition builds on the spirit of the first Dennison + Collectability collaboration while moving the design language forward in a daring and unexpected new direction. The familiar Dennison case shape is transformed through an unusual asymmetric form set within the case revealing a geometrically shaped dial. Each version of the watch features its own design language on the dial. More sculptural than the first edition, the watch is designed to engage the wearer to see time in a whole new way.

The renewed Dennison identity has been guided by Emmanuel Gueit, the creative force behind some of modern watchmaking’s mostrecognizable designs. For this Dennison + Collectability 2026 Edition, Gueit expands on Dennison’s distinctive case and dial architecture with a design that feels at once vintage-inspired and unmistakably contemporary.

Oblique Enigma Dial

Playful, mysterious, and delightfully offbeat. This two-tone dial features an inner blue sunburst finish, framed by a diamond-cut metallic border and set within a rich suburst green surround. Its asymmetrical layout and unexpected geometric composition give the watch a sense of movement, as if the dial is shifting between perspectives.

Oblique Vector Dial

An energetic expression of the Oblique design. Twelve lines radiate from the center, creating a dynamic sense of direction and dimension. In gold, the Vector dial has warm gilt-colored sunray finish with contrasting black lines. In steel, it has a silvered sunray finish with blue lines. This monochromatic design blends timeless elegance with a refined, futuristic edge.

With this second series release, Dennison and Collectability reaffirm their shared belief that great design should not be reserved only for the few. Inspired by vintage form, modern creativity, and the emotional pull of collecting, the Dennison + Collectability 2026 Edition brings a new shape and a new feeling to the wrist.

“This second collaboration with Dennison is about the joy of design and the emotion of collecting. It started with a conversation a single piece of a paper, and a shared love of 1960s asymmetric watches. Emmanuel took that idea and made it real. The result is something bold, unexpected, and accessible. Exactly the kind of watch that reminds me why I fell in love with collecting in the first place,” John Reardon said.

“For this next collaboration with Collectability, I really wanted to focus on the architecture of the watch and especially the asymmetrical opening of the dial. My vision has always been to create something different and unexpected rather than follow convention. For me, asymmetry creates tension, balance, and a completely different emotion on the wrist,” Emmanuel Gueit added.

“When we first released this collaboration in 2025 it was unexpected, yet made perfect sense. This time round, we are even more excited to introduce the new 2026 Edition. A collaboration shaped by a shared passion and vision. The result is a watch that honors the past while possessing a distinctly original character and authenticity,” Toby Sutton concluded.
