The Story
“A dial cut from tiger iron — banded tiger's eye, red jasper and hematite laid down over millions of years — honouring the Golkonda mines whose stones filled royal treasuries. Every dial shows a different slice of the rock, so no two are alike.
The Tiger Ferrum opens Deccan Watches' Golkonda collection — 'The Earth's Signature' — and it is built around something rarely seen under ₹10,000: a natural stone dial. Golkonda was once synonymous with the world's most famous diamonds, and DeW & Co. answers that with semi-precious tiger iron, each dial showing its own bands of gold, rust and steel-grey. The 35.5mm cushion case in 304L steel is 11.3mm thick with 39mm lug-to-lug, runs a slim two-hand Miyota GL24 quartz, and is engraved on the back with a fortress gateway; a brown croc-embossed leather strap completes it. Released as 'Project Genesis' through the Time Collectors India community on 12 September 2026, the first drop sold out within days. At ₹9,999 for a limited time (MRP ₹11,799), it is a vintage-sized dress watch with a dial the earth designed.

About the maker
Deccan Watches (DeW & Co.)
Founded 2026 · Bengaluru · Time Collectors India (TCI) collective
Deccan Watches — signed DeW & Co. on the dial — is the house brand of Time Collectors India, the Bengaluru-based collector community, and it may be the clearest case yet of Indian enthusiasts deciding to build the watches they couldn't buy. Its brief is the Deccan's overlooked stories and materials rather than the popular narratives. The first project, the Dodda Gadiyara, marked the centenary of Mysuru's clock tower with Kannada numerals in a gold-toned engraved case: a run of 60 pieces that sold out to TCI members before it was ever shown publicly. The second, the Golkonda Tiger Ferrum, sets a natural tiger iron stone dial — tiger's eye, jasper and hematite — in a 35.5mm cushion case, a nod to the Golkonda mines that once supplied the world's royal treasuries. It sold out its first drop within days. Small batches, community-first, and no two stone dials alike.
