If you are in Split, Croatia and would like to buy some beautiful and original Break Time gifts, we have a sweet deal to offer, too. Besides the free personalised engraving, we also have 20% discount for EVERYTHING that we have in stock, with the exception of the new OCEAN collection. Please note that our Trogirska 8 shop is open only two days per week until mid December (Friday and Saturday, from 10.30 to 18.30).
We are in the New York Times!
Always wanted to say "as seen in the New York Times"...and now we can :)
The "36 hours in Split" article that was just published online on June 8th (and that will appear also in the print edition this Sunday!) features a stop to our shop when it comes to "Take Split home". We are happy to have been recommended as a choice for Split made souvenirs!
You can read the whole article on the New York Times Travel. And, of course, we are looking forward to having you in our Split shop! Click here for directions!

What are shackle bracelets
Shackle bracelets have become popular as a fashion accessory, as well as for their symbolism. For some, the shackle represents strength and security, while for others it may symbolize freedom and liberation. In any case, shackle bracelets can be a unique and eye-catching addition to a personal style.
We have two types of Break Time shackle bracelets. Most popular ones are made of sailing rope and feature a closing resembling a yacht shackle.
The second type of shackle bracelets that we create here at Break Time are made entirely our of tiny shackles, linked together to form an original designed chain. Different nautical-inspired titanium charms can be attached to the Ocean shackle bracelets.
Six reasons why you should buy a nautical bracelet
There are many reasons why someone might choose to buy a nautical bracelet. Overall, a nautical bracelet can serve as a fashionable and functional accessory that symbolises someone's connection to the sea and the coastal lifestyle.
Buying handmade is a unique and personal alternative to mass-produced jewelry that is often found in department stores and jewelry chains.

'Tis the time for gift shopping, so we have a great combo deal for you! Until the end of the year, we have 10% discount on all collections (except the new OCEAN charm bracelets) and - since Christmas is about unique, thoughtful and personalised presents - we are also offering you free engraving for all bracelets!

Thank you for this great season!
After two years of pandemic, we are happy to have had a GREAT summer season for our Split shops, so we want to thank all the amazing people who visited and chose us for their souvenirs from Croatia, our small business would have not survived another year without YOU!
We also want to thank our amazing 2022 team: Paula, who returned to work with us for the fourth year, as well as the new and great additions to our team, students Zara and Marija! Hands down, the most unified and professional team we ever had so far! And our season would not have been so great without them. We appreciate you!
Free engraving until October 20
Our "Welcome, autumn!" gift to you...free engraving for any Break Time nautical bracelet you choose to buy from our online shop, until October 20!
Plenty of time to think on what to engrave, but in case you need some inspo, don't forget about our blog post with over 100 engraving ideas to choose from.
Also, in case you are considering getting some personalised Christmas gifts, do not procrastinate any longer and get them now. Not only will you feel good for having done some Christmas shopping early, but as December gets closer, postal services will take longer to deliver. And you are living in a country outside EU, shipping can take anything from two weeks to even over a month, if we are talking about Australia or New Zealand.
Not to mention that our designer Leonard will be on vacation most of November, so we will be unable to fulfill orders from 03.11 to 25.11., unless we have those bracelets you want in stock, in our Trogirska 8 shop in Split, Croatia (but we will not be able to customise them with an engraving during those three weeks).
Say hello to our 2022 Split shop team
Summer is here and we are ready to welcome you in our Trogirska 8 shop in Split with some familiar faces - myself (Mirela) and my partner in crime, Leonard.
We also have two new team members this year - Marie is from Lyon, France and she is doing her internship with us until July. And last, but not least, we recently welcomed Split-native Zara to our team, she is a medicine student and here with us throughout the summer.

The discounts up to 20% and free engraving end 31.05
