    The Sands of Gallipoli collection is a unique and inspiring collection created to provide an enduring connection to the birthplace of the Australian Spirit and create beautiful pieces that honour our diggers.

    Beginning almost 20 years ago, the Sands of Gallipoli is an annual collection created to honour the Anzac spirit and guard the memory of those who served. Every year, a small collection is created to form a part of the overall Sands of Gallipoli collection. These smaller collections typically focus on one story or a smaller group that represents the Anzac Spirit and poignantly tells the story of the diggers who showed mateship, loyalty, and bravery during this fateful campaign.

    Every collection includes pieces that contain actual sands collection from the landing beach at Anzac Cove, Gallipoli. Through the years, collections have ranged from medallions to pins to figurines, and in 2022 the Sands of Gallipoli Watch will be the first limited edition watch added to the collection.

    Every soldier throughout the proud history of Australian military service has had a story to tell. A story of ordinary men and women providing extraordinary service. Stories that tell of the bond of mateship, the highs and the lows, the courage and fear, and those they lost. These important contributions to our history are to be passed on and shared through the generations. Our Sands of Gallipoli collections pay tribute to ordinary diggers who gave extraordinary service.

    The latest addition to the Sands of Gallipoli collection, the Limited Edition Watch by Bausele is a unisex watch designed to carry the spirit of Anzac with you wherever you go. A captivating commemorative design voted for by our supporters, this stunning watch brings together the past and present. With sand from the beaches of Gallipoli encased in the strategically placed crown, this wonderful timepiece features unique touches that bring the watch to life. Only 100 watches will be produced, creating a treasured keepsake for years to come.
