Built by hand.
Worn with purpose.
I started this watchmaking hobby in 2026, building watches from individual components and bringing vintage pieces back to life through careful servicing and restoration.
A small hobby, made seriously.
Every project starts with the same idea: choose good components, take the time to get the details right, and build something that feels personal.
Alongside new custom builds, I service and restore selected vintage watches. Where possible, original character is retained rather than replacing everything with new parts.

Replace these placeholders with the watch photos from your library when the images are available to the site.
Your watch, your choices.
Want a particular case, dial, handset or GMT look? Tell me what you have in mind and I can source compatible components and put together a build around your requirements.
Cases, hands and dials may be sourced from marketplaces such as AliExpress where suitable. Movement sourcing is handled separately through UK suppliers.
Movement options
- TMI / Seiko NH35 — automatic, date, 3 hands
- TMI / Seiko NH34 — automatic GMT, date, 3 hands + GMT
- Other NH-series movements can be considered depending on the design.
The NH34 and NH35 are 12 ligne movements, 5.32 mm high and run at 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz). Compatibility between case, dial and hands is checked for each build.
Tell me what you want to build.
Send an idea, a reference photo, or simply a rough description. I'll come back with realistic component options and a build estimate.
