The Chundan Vallam, shown in White & rose gold.01 / 04
The Chundan Vallam.
Kerala's snake boat crosses just below 12 — long and low, its stern curving high, rowers along its length. It's the boat of Onam and the backwater races.

Malayalam · Chundan Vallam
Every oar, in time.
A Chundan Vallam moves because every rower pulls together. It's the boat of Onam and Kerala's backwater races, and it crosses this dial just below 12. Malayalam numerals keep the time — from Kochi to the Gulf to the UK.

The details
Up close.
01
The emblem.
A Chundan Vallam crosses just below 12 — the long snake boat, its stern curving high, rowers along its length.
02
The crown.
The knurled crown at 3 o'clock carries the snake boat again, engraved on a cap smaller than a fingernail.
03
The bezel.
An eight-sided bezel in 316L steel, with screws set into its face. It frames the Malayalam numerals like a window.
04
The bracelet.
A 316L steel bracelet that flows straight out of the case. It comes with the sizing tool, so you can size it at home.

Pride of Kerala
“I bought this timepiece for my husband and I could not be happier with the quality and overall efficiency. My husband loved having a small piece of home on his wrist.
I contacted Veer Ji hoping my gift would arrive in time for valentine's day, and he kept his word! I would definitely recommend Fateh for their undeniable craftsmanship and assistance.”

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
Puttu and purpose. From Kochi to the Gulf to the UK.
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.
