Georgetown, Texas — Est. 2024
One-of-a-kind watches with hand-engraved dials — sculptural bas-relief, champlevé-style, and engine-turned inspired geometries. About thirty a year. No two alike.
The Process
Your story, your imagery. We shape it into a dial design — bas-relief, champlevé-style, or engine-turned inspired geometries.
Sculptural engraving and hand-finishing on brass, titanium, or sterling silver. The heart of the watch.
Dial married to case and movement — tested in-house for fit, function, and water resistance.
Your keepsake, one of one. Backed by warranty and a watchmaker who knows your piece by name.
◆ Every commission is scheduled. Capacity runs about 30 watches a year — the waitlist decides who builds next.Join the Waitlist
