Kannada · Gandaberunda

Two heads, looking both ways.

The Gandaberunda — the two-headed bird of the Wodeyars of Mysore — spreads its wings just below 12. One head faces each way, for strength on both sides. Kannada numerals mark every hour, from Bengaluru to the Bay Area.

Two sizes. One dial.

The same script, emblem and dial in two case sizes. The 40mm is the men’s size, and plenty of women wear it too. The 31mm is the women’s size, made for slimmer wrists, with the script still large enough to read.

Before you order

Questions.

What am I charged today?

$275 today — $20 less than the in-stock price. It's our thanks for waiting on the next batch. Nothing more is charged when it ships. Free US shipping.

When does it ship?

Pre-orders ship November 25. This one sold out, so your order reserves a watch from the next batch. The same date shows in your bag, at checkout and on your confirmation. It's a ship date, not a delivery date. US delivery takes 3–5 business days after that, and we email tracking the day it leaves Texas.

What if I order in-stock and pre-order watches together?

The in-stock watches ship from Texas in 1–2 business days. The pre-orders follow on their own ship date, which shows on each watch in your bag, at checkout and on your confirmation. Shipping is free both times, and the free watch in a set of three still applies.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Any time before it ships, for a full refund, including any duties and taxes. Email veer@fateh.co with your order number. There's nothing to send back.

How does buy 2, get 1 free work?

Add any three of the nine culture watches and the lowest-priced one is free. Mix cultures, finishes and sizes. Pre-orders count toward the set. Every third watch is free, so six watches get two free. Limited editions, like Phulkari, aren't part of the offer. If you return part of a set, we recalculate the offer on the watches you keep.

Can I return it?

Yes, free within 30 days of delivery in the US. It needs to be unworn and in the original box, with everything that came in it, including the sizing tool. Email veer@fateh.co and we'll send a prepaid label. Refunds go to your original payment method. One exchange per order; the replacement can’t be exchanged again or refunded. Full return policy

Will it fit?

There are two case sizes with the same dial, script and emblem: 40mm (men’s) and 31mm (women’s). Plenty of women choose the 40mm; the 31mm suits slimmer wrists. You size the bracelet at home with the sizing tool and instructions in the box. Wrong size? You can exchange once per order; the replacement can’t be exchanged again or refunded.

Where is it made?

Designed in the USA · Swiss movement. Every FATEH watch runs on a Swiss Ronda movement under sapphire crystal, in a 316L stainless steel case and bracelet. The other components are sourced globally to our designs. We ship from Texas.

A note from the founder

Bisi bele bath and bold moves. From Bengaluru to the Bay Area.

After my grandfather passed, I started wearing his old watch. A simple timepiece that became an heirloom — and my very first watch. Swiss watchmaking. Italian leather. Japanese ceramics. But nothing for us.

So I built one.

The scripts our grandparents wrote in, now on the dial. If yours is a pre-order, the date it ships is on your confirmation. Any question at all, write to me at veer@fateh.co.
