Our story

zamani is a celebration of art, culture, and heritage, on your wrist. We're a Palestinian business based in Dubai, now shipping to Malaysia, Singapore, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.

  1. zamani was created with one idea in mind: to make heritage wearable.

  2. We're Palestinian, and like many Palestinians, we've lived all over the world, from Kuwait and Greece to Canada and Dubai. Moving between cultures, we always looked for ways to carry our identity with us. zamani was born from that need.

  3. The first zamani band sold on 20 June 2024. It was a keffiyeh band, and it went to an address in the UAE.

  4. We started with designs from our own roots, then grew by collaborating with designers from around the world. Each band is inspired by cultural traditions, reimagined in a modern way, and created with care and respect.

  5. The name zamani, in many languages, means time. The i at the end makes it personal: my time, my past. zamani connects past and present, turning heritage into something timeless.

  6. A watch is something you look at dozens of times a day. That glance is a reminder. Wearing your heritage is a statement of pride, of belonging, and of remembering where you come from. That is the heart of zamani: timeless, meaningful accessories that connect us to the cultures that inspire them.

When we began shipping internationally, we also began sending samples to an independent laboratory. In June 2026, QIMA tested samples of our bands against the chemical-safety standards for what touches your skin in the European Union and the United States. We test because the people who wear our pieces deserve more than a print of their culture. They deserve materials that respect them. What they tested.
