When Halloween rolls around, it’s not just the costumes and sweets that set the mood – a great watch can do the trick too.
Whether you’re after something quietly creepy or playfully macabre, a timepiece can add just the right amount of spooky flair to your wrist.
From glowing dials to ghostly faces, some watches seem made to give you a little chill every time you check the time. I’ve rounded up four that perfectly capture that Halloween spirit.
So pour yourself a pumpkin spice latte, queue up your favourite horror flick, and let’s take a look at four watches that bring a touch of fright to your outfit.
1. Spinnaker Fleuss Automatic Seconde/Seconde/ 2025 Edition
Spinnaker and Parisian artist Romaric André (aka Seconde/Seconde/) are back with their third Halloween-themed dive watch collaboration: the Fleuss Automatic Seconde/Seconde/ 2025 Edition. Following the 2023 and 2024 models, the 2025 Edition comes in two sizes: a 40mm Phantom Steel and a 43mm Phantom White, both featuring a spectral grey “phantom” dial with tiny glowing ghosts.
Luminous hands and indices, a sunray-brushed bezel, and a ghostly rotor add to the eerie charm, while the watches include both a steel bracelet and a glow-in-the-dark NATO strap for everyday wear. Seconde/Seconde/ fans will also spot quirky touches like a spooky-eyed date window and a wavy bezel.
Batch No. 1 sold out immediately, with the smaller 40mm model limited to 1050 pieces priced at $525 (approx. £400), while the 43mm saw 1150 made for $475 (approx. £350).
You can join the Fleuss Automatic Seconde/Seconde/ 2025 Edition waitlist now, for deliveries in May 2026.
2. Mr Jones Watches Night Howl
Mr Jones Watches has teamed up with French author and illustrator Xavier Broche for Night Howl, a wonderfully eerie creation arriving just in time for spooky season.
The dial tells a small story: a lone wanderer explores a moonlit forest filled with hidden creatures – a fox, an owl, and even a ghost. The man’s torch beam sweeps across the dial to mark the minutes, while the ghost itself tracks the hours. Broche says it’s inspired by that unnerving feeling of walking through dark woods, where every tiny sound makes your heart race.
It’s imaginative, oddly charming, and a perfect fit for Mr Jones’ collection of storytelling watches. It’s available now on Mr Jones Watches priced at US$275 / £195.
3. Swatch D’oh of the Dead
This playful watch from Swatch’s The Simpsons Collection has a distinctly spooky vibe, featuring the whole Simpson family in a vibrant, multi-coloured Day of the Dead print.
Set against a sleek matte black dial and silicone strap, it’s packed with eerie charm thanks to glow-in-the-dark details and bone-shaped white print on the black hour and minute hands.
At US$115 / £96, this quirky timepiece is the perfect accessory for Simpson fans who love celebrating Halloween in style, but, if you’re not a fan of The Simpsons, then you should check out It’s Spooky Time, which is equally as fun.
4. Konstantin Chaykin Joker Halloween
Few watchmakers do weird and wonderful quite like Konstantin Chaykin. His workshop has produced everything from Dracula and Clown-themed watches to the now-famous Joker — and this Halloween version might just be the most mischievous of the lot.
Limited to only 88 pieces, the Joker Halloween model comes in a 42mm bronze case with engraved detailing and a brushed finish. The dial mixes shades of green and gold with a pumpkin-orange grin: the eyes display the hours and minutes, while the moonphase forms that signature Joker smile.
Inside, it runs on a Swiss-made ETA automatic movement paired with Chaykin’s own module, good for about 38 hours of power. It’s wild, witty, and delightfully sinister — exactly what you’d expect from one of horology’s great eccentrics. You can browse the full collection on Konstantin Chaykin’s official site.
