About this model
About this model
The Dark Night is the slim, little brother to our best selling Gotham's Vigilante.
It's a stealthy design with a flash of colour, from the yellow Superluminova lume and second hand.
The case is a super slim 8mm (10.6mm with glass), 38mm diameter. It's made from 80% recycled steel, with a black DLC coating. It features gorgeous twisted lugs. It's mostly brushed, with a hint of high polish.
The strap is made from BeerSkin® - a 'leather' made from Budweiser's beer waste, and lined with soft 'nubuck' made from corn. This is one of the most comfortable watches you will every wear.
Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal is used on the front and the exhibition case back, which shows off the Japanese Miyota 9039 movement.
These are unlimited editions, made in small batches. Each one is indiviually numbers on the back, i.e. "Batch 1: 001/100".
At least 1% of every sale goes to helping protect the planet. So when you wear it, you’re not just keeping time—you’re part of something bigger.

The 1st watch brand in Europe to sign up for 1% for the planet.
At least 1% of each sale (not just profit) goes to eco charities. Our current charity partner is Surfers Against Sewage. We want to show that business can be a force for good in the world.
Championing alternative, eco-friendly materials. To show the world what can be done.
Including #tide recycled ocean plastic, 80% recycled steel, fashion industry offcuts and a whole lot more to come. The aim of Detrash is to show that trash can be made into something beautiful. Because what's the point of recycling if we don't value "made from recycled"?


Founder's note
"Detrash is a passion project. I love watches, but find most of them boring, and the ones that are even vaguely fun can be eye wateringly expensive (£200k - over £1m for a Richard Mille with a smiley face!). In 2023 I sold my first business and this gave me some time to look at watches properly. The main thing that amazed me was that unlike FMCG (my last business) very few companies are even trying to do anything ethical. It feels like every other industry is switching to have more of a purpose and do some good in the world, and the watch world isn't even trying. This is a massive shame, but together we can fix this" Guy Blaskey
