The Warrior King Native Collection launched on July 31, 2026, marking what is being described as Ghana's first watch featuring a kente-inspired dial, drawing widespread admiration online and putting a Ghanaian-designed timepiece firmly in the spotlight.

The collection was introduced as a tribute to Ghana's cultural mosaic, with the dial drawing directly from the rich colours and geometric patterns of kente cloth, rendered in black, gold, red, and green enamel. Around the dial, the names of Ghanaian ethnic communities, including Ewe, Ga-Dangme, Akan, and Gurma, are inscribed, making the watch as much a cultural statement as it is a horological one.

Warrior King Native Collection Specification.

Beyond the striking aesthetics, the Native Collection is built to serious standards. It houses an automatic mechanical movement, Warrior King Movement, housed in a 316L stainless steel case with sapphire crystal up front and an exhibition sapphire caseback that lets wearers view the movement. The watch is paired with a vegetable-tanned leather strap and a butterfly deployment clasp, with noctilucent hands for low-light legibility. Water resistance sits at 5 ATM, or 50 metres, and every piece carries a five-year international warranty. Each watch is individually numbered, confirming its limited-edition status.

The launch message framed the collection as something larger than a luxury product, positioning it as a reminder that the diversity across Ghana's communities is a source of collective strength rather than division. The brand expressed a hope that the Native Collection would carry that message beyond Ghana to the rest of Africa and the world.
