Washington, DC — Howie Hodges, class of ’82 at Morehouse College, took his commitment to “The House” seriously when he created a trademarked design for a signature watch to be exclusively worn by the formidable Morehouse Man.
The HWCo watches are an élite and limited Morehouse College collection where only 350 will be offered for sale. Morehouse gets a percentage of all sales through an approved licensing arrangement.
Watches are custom-made-to-order with a remarkable layered dial of iconic “Graves Hall” crafted from sterling silver, over iridescent mother-of-pearl. All movements are SWISS made and imported by HWCo.
Hodges says, “I have a passion for watches, and I wanted to design and manufacture a “collectable timepiece” that could be passed down from generation-to-generation of Morehouse men and to help my Alma Mater and have fun doing so. And, to remind me of the momentous years I spent on campus.”
