1903 Watch Co.

THE WORKSHOP IS OPEN.


ABOUT US: THE ORIGINS


I started 1903 Watch Co. because I missed the weight of things that were built to last a century. Modern life is disposable; the workshop of 1903 was anything but.

That was the year the world sped up—on wings, on wheels, and in the dirt. I wanted to put that era back on the wrist. My goal isn't to sell thousands of watches; it's to build one hundred perfect ones for the people who still appreciate the smell of a machine shop and the click of a well-made tool.

Every 1903 Watch Co. timepiece is a commitment to the "Over-Engineered."
If it doesn't feel like it could survive a cross-country flight in a biplane or a day in the trenches, it doesn't leave my bench.

    THE 100 WATCH STANDARD


    At 1903 Watch Co we believe precision comes from restraint.
    We would rather build one hundred watches that are exactly right than ten thousand that are merely acceptable.
