This is the story about Kolobok. About the main character of one of the most beloved childrens' stories. And about an unusual watch. A watch from Konstantin Chaykin's Wristmons collection. Wristmons (“wrist monsters”) is a collection of watches with anthropomorphic (face-like) dials, created by Konstantin Chaykin in 2017. Today it has more than 25 character, including the Joker, the Clown, the Minions and the Harley Quinn watch. Kolobok is the latest addition to the series, introduced to the public in August 2023. Kolobok is the title character in the Russian fairy tale of the same name. The tale's hero is the Little Round Bun (more usual name of the story in English). He was baked by Grandma and Grandpa, turned out to be alive and quite restless, running away from home. During his journey encountered a rabbit, a wolf, and a bear who tried to eat him, but the hero outwitted them all and escaped with his life. The central theme of the fairy tale (which everyone in Russia knows) is Kolobok's song: “I got away from Grandpa, I got away from Grandma, I got away from the rabbit...“ At the end of the story the hero encounters a fox. In Russian fairy tales this figure is traditionally the most cunning, and this is no exception. The fox deceives the Kolobok and eats him. The international presentation took place on August 29 as part of Geneva Watch Days, giving this hero known to everyone in Russia since childhood a breath of new life and a chance to talk about him in every corner of the globe. At all levels, from watch design, movement features to promotion, the master tells the story and conveys the personalities of the characters in modern language, creating his own “new take on a fairy tale“ that allows it to be understood without words.
