British watchmaker Marloe has partnered with Scotland’s much lauded Ardnamurchan distillery, to release a limited-edition watch and whisky package, featuring Marloe’s new Glenbeg Blue timepiece and Ardnamurchan’s first 10-year-old Oloroso single cask release.
The watch is powered by a Swiss-made STP1-21 automatic mechanical movement, known for its reliability and precision. The design here includes a copper-plated Ardnamurchan Distillery rotor and colour-matched date wheel.
The Glenbeg Blue’s dial is offset with copper detailing, inspired by Ardnamurchan’s copper stills. The hands, too, are unique: Marloe’s custom ‘persuader’ hour and minute hands are complemented by a copper valinch seconds hand, acknowledging the tool used to extract whisky samples from the cask.

The hands, too, are uniquely designed: Marloe’s custom ‘persuader’ hour and minute hands are complemented by a copper valinch seconds hand, named after the tool used to extract whisky samples from the cask.
A sapphire crystal with five layers of internal anti-reflective coating, ensures both durability and clarity.
The watch is water-resistant up to 100 metres and is presented in a bespoke Glenbeg distillery case with a ‘Headland of the Great Seas’ engraving at 9 o’clock.
The caseback features a still hatch design with an exhibition window, offering a glimpse into the intricate mechanics of the watch.
Each Glenbeg Blue is sequentially numbered to match the limited-edition whisky bottle that accompanies it. The watch comes with a perforated Oloroso sherry leather strap, a nod to the whisky that forms part of this exclusive package.
Ardnamurchan 10-year-old Oloroso single cask whisky
Accompanying the Glenbeg Blue is a bottle of Ardnamurchan’s first-ever 10-year-old Oloroso single cask whisky, sourced from Cask No. 233 – the 233rd cask filled at Ardnamurchan in 2014.
The whisky has matured in a single Oloroso sherry cask. Official tasting notes speak of deep, dark fruit flavours, with notes of oak, spice, and a hint of sweetness.
In addition to the full-size bottle, the collaborative set includes a 5cl miniature of the whisky, allowing collectors to taste the liquid without breaking the seal on the main bottle. A cask plug cut from the staves of Cask No. 233 also accompanies the set, along with a hand-numbered collector’s card.
The Glenbeg Blue collaborative package is priced at £849 and is available for pre-order now, with shipping late November. This release is limited to 292 sets.
