I can’t reconcile a street artist doing faces somehow….doesn’t seem to fit with the whole ethos.
What ethos? :D
Well..street art is a visual art produced in public spaces for public view. It’s supposed to make a statement about society. Mydogsighs specialises in using stuff he finds….in fact his website states “ My Dog Sighs's style is characterised by the combination of melancholic and often naive portraiture with the use of found materials including abandoned food cans.”
Tribus watches website actually states “ Explore My Dog Sighs' work, and particular themes repeat themselves: love and loss; the plight of the unheard; a cry for help; the environment. The list is emotive for a reason… to remind a blinkered society what really matters.”

Therefore I don’t really see how painting some 2.5k watch dials in abstract colours which don’t relate to either of those statements fits with his ethos.
I completely agree. I don’t understand this particular partnership at all.

It seems the general public agree as, several months after launch, 41 of the limited run of 50 remain for sale.

Take away company reserved numbers, friends and family, the artist and other directly interested parties and it appears that virtually no unconnected parties think that this is particularly unique and/or worth the best part of £2,500.

Seems like more of a ‘dog’s dinner’ that any ‘sighing’ going on here 😂
