Mr Porter and Jaeger-LeCoultre have released a new luxury watch inspired by the latest film in the Kingsman series, The King’s Man.

The 100-piece limited-edition Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife timepiece will be offered exclusively on Mr Porter from this week until September 6 as part of the retailer’s continued ‘costume to collection’ deal with the Kingsman franchise.

After that date, shoppers can also buy the watch directly from Jaeger-LeCoultre online and in selected boutiques.

The Jaeger-LeCoultre timepiece joins an edit of Kingsman-themed items currently available on the menswear destination. Drawing inspiration from Matthew Vaughn’s films, the capsule collection features Savile Row-style suits, shirts from royal warrant holders Turnbull & Asser and engraved cufflinks.

The latest addition comes ahead of the upcoming release of The King’s Man, which is landing in cinemas this September. Starring Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton and Djimon Hounsou, the film is a prequel to the Kingsman franchise, set in the early 1900s.

Sam Kershaw, buying director at Mr Porter, said: “The watch has a strong heritage styling coupled with being limited to only 100 pieces and will be sure to be received extremely well with our growing global watch community.”

The £26,900 timepiece is a refined dress watch presented in a 40mm size. It features an ultra thin 18-karat rose gold case that is just 4.25mm thick and it comes with an engraved Kingsman logo on the back.
