Around these parts we love watches. We love what they represent as a fashion statement as much as what they represent as a functional way to tell time. Of-course, today’s watches are much more capable of performing that simple function. And yet, there is something truly wonderful about an exquisite watch that has been made with great care by the hands of a watchmaker that respects and loves traditional values of horology.
Watches were one of the first mechanical marvels that humans invented, and they continue to stand the test of time as something you can be proud to wear and pass on to your children.
