Ikepod Megapod Skaters In The Sky x Tom Christopher

When the dial becomes a canvas.

The Ikepod Megapod “Skaters In The Sky” x Tom Christopher brings contemporary art to the wrist through a collaboration with American painter Tom Christopher, known for his energetic interpretations of New York City.

Created as Ikepod's first artist collaboration since 2010, the watch transforms the distinctive Megapod into a miniature urban landscape. Christopher's Skaters In The Sky artwork reimagines skyscrapers as colourful hour markers, with skaters moving through the cityscape in his characteristically vibrant visual language.

The unconventional dial feels particularly at home inside Ikepod's sculptural case. Measuring 46mm in stainless steel, the Megapod uses the brand's signature lugless architecture to create a smooth, continuous silhouette around the wrist.

Behind the watch is an exhibition caseback signed with Tom Christopher – Skaters In The Sky, reinforcing the connection between the artwork and the timepiece.

Inside beats the Miyota 9039 automatic movement, offering approximately 42 hours of power reserve. Sapphire crystal protects the dial, while 50 metres of water resistance and a black silicone strap make the watch suitable for everyday wear.

Limited to 200 pieces worldwide, the Megapod MTC1 Skaters In The Sky sits somewhere between mechanical watch, contemporary artwork and wearable design object — an Ikepod for collectors who see the wrist as another place for art.
