Caveman Watches honours Vice President with exclusive ‘First Star’ heritage timepiece
Ghana’s Vice President, Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, has been honoured with a one-of-a-kind luxury timepiece created specially in her honour by the Ghanaian watch brand Caveman Watches.
The bespoke watch, known as the First Star Heritage, was designed to commemorate Prof Opoku-Agyemang’s historic achievement as the first woman to serve as Vice President of the Republic of Ghana. The milestone is widely regarded as a significant moment in the country’s democratic development and a symbol of progress in gender representation in national leadership.
According to the watchmaker, the timepiece was crafted using high-grade gold and manufactured with advanced five-axis computer numerical control (CNC) machining technology, a precision engineering process commonly associated with the production of high-end luxury watches. The design also incorporates elements of indigenous craftsmanship, combining modern manufacturing techniques with Ghanaian artistic expression.
The single-edition creation was intentionally produced as a 1-of-1 piece to reflect the uniqueness of the Vice President’s achievement and her long-standing contribution to public life. Its finishing, structural detailing and materials were designed to symbolise strength, excellence and enduring leadership.
The presentation of the timepiece forms part of activities marking Heritage Month, a period dedicated to celebrating Ghanaian identity, creativity and homegrown innovation.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Caveman Watches, Anthony Dzamefe, described the watch as more than a luxury accessory, saying it represents a historical tribute.
He said the piece was “more than a luxury accessory; it is a historic artefact that immortalises a defining chapter in Ghana’s democratic journey and the remarkable legacy of Prof Opoku-Agyemang.”
Receiving the watch, the Vice President expressed appreciation for the gesture, noting that the tribute symbolised the strides being made in promoting gender equality and encouraging young Ghanaian women to aspire to leadership roles.
Caveman Watches has in recent years gained growing international recognition for combining modern precision engineering with traditional craftsmanship. The Ghanaian brand has positioned itself as a symbol of African luxury and innovation, attracting a high-profile clientele that includes John Dramani Mahama, former Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo, as well as global entertainment figures such as Beyoncé and Angélique Kidjo.
The tribute to Prof Opoku-Agyemang marks another moment in the brand’s effort to highlight Ghanaian craftsmanship while celebrating individuals who have made notable contributions to national and international life.
