You will be met by our master watch builder at our workshop in St Andrews for a warm welcome. To warm things up we offer a selection of local Scottish produce such as whisky, beer and wine along with nibbles and Scottish tablet.
We will begin by sharing the history of local watch manufacturing and the story of our brand to help give you inspiration for the build of your own timepiece.
You'll be guided through our range, beginning with case designs and our vast range of straps, available in metals, leathers, cashmere and wool by Scotland’s Johnston's of Elgin, as well as authentic Harris Tweed options. With over 900 combinations to choose from you'll be spoilt for choice!
Next the master watch builder will guide you through the assembly of your chosen components to create your finished wristwatch.
Finally, you can further personalise your watch with a bespoke engraving. Adding text or even a handwritten message to the case back. You will operate the engraving machine and watch your timepiece come to life.
And there you have it, a unique watch designed & made by you to keep forever.
