The Story
“The Rajabai Clock Tower at Mumbai University — built 1878, modelled on Big Ben, and once the tallest structure in Bombay. A clock tower rendered on a wristwatch.
The Rajabai Clock Tower was Bombay's time-keeper before wristwatches existed — its Westminster chimes marked the hours across the city's cotton mills and trading houses. AIQON's tribute is a basalt-black dial that references the tower's dark stone, with a texture that maps its Gothic lantern. A clock tower, now a watch.
