Today we are taking a closer look into alternative fashion and the watches that fit the darker, enigmatic and alluring style of Birmingham’s underground music scene. We have recently caught up with a local band from Birmingham, Treeherder. Treeherder is an alternative rock band that started in 2016 with the intention of making epic music and celebrating their unique style in the West Midlands and beyond.

Treeherder competed this year and were one of the finalists. Before they played the final gig, we managed to snap a few shots of them styling some of our alternative brands including, Jean Paul Gaultier, Thomas Sabo and Harley Davidson.
