The LOTH 1 - painstakingly crafted by @lothwatches (with a big assist from @tick.tim.time , who heat treated the lovely violet hands). If the mesmerising mosaic pattern on the dial wasn’t enough to grab your eye, flip the watch over to the movement side and you’ll see hand finished German silver bridges with some of the widest anglage you’ll see. Very much looking forward to seeing what Tristan will release next, potentially later this year! #lothwatches #independentwatchmaking #riseoftheindies #horology

Kind of watch that a gentleman would wear on a formal occasion, Universal Genève Tank from the 1950s. Slim, rectangular, and effortlessly refined. The Roman numerals sit with poise on a golden dial, while Breguet-style hands glide with unmistakable fancy sweep. It’s the kind of watch you catch a glimpse of at a candlelit dinner or black-tie event, a flash of 18K gold case that makes you do a double-take. It just completes the outfit. Pure class. #universalgeneve #universalgenevetank #watchnerd #vintagewatch #watchenthusiast #watchoftheday #timepiececollector

A sneak preview of some of the shots I took for a review of my Holthinrichs Signature LAB series 1 that will be up on the Fifth Wrist website in the next week or so. It’s an utterly unique and beguiling watch! Stay tuned for the full review soon! . . . . #holthinrichswatches #holthinrichslabseries #independentwatchmaking #indiewatch #riseoftheindies #watchphoto #horology #3dprintedwatch

Lovely meld between Art Deco, sector and traditional field watch design cues. #arcangewatches #microbrandwatch #fieldwatch

The Origin Air from @jameslambwatches has such a dynamic dial with so much to look at from so many angles, like those blued hands, the different colours of opalescent enamel, or the reflections on the dial. . . . #jameslambwatches #jameslamborigin #independentwatchmaking #independentwatchmaker #argentium #enameldial

Haven’t posted a pic of my @holthinrichswatches Raw Ornament for awhile now. Here it is looking right at home on the Robotoy. . . . #holthinrichswatches #holthinrichsrawornament #independentwatchmaking

I’d love to get a Moonbridge bracelet for the Stardust one day—but until then, thanks to @basandlokes , I think I’ve found my perfect strap pairing! A lot of purple straps lean either too purple or too close to burgundy for my liking, but this one strikes just the right balance. And that stitching, perfectly matching the blue accents on the dial? The cherry on top! . . . #sarpanevastardust #sarpanevawatches #independentwatchmaking #watchstrap #basandlokes #independentwatchmaker

If that rocket shaped seconds hand wasn’t epic enough, another awesome detail is that the seconds sub dial, which usually appears a lighter shade of blue to the rest of the dial, also has these heat-treated shades of purple around the outer edge of it which become more apparent depending on how the light hits it. Swipe to see how the sub dial looks at different angles. . . . #sarpanevawatches #sarpaneva #sarpanevastardust #independentwatchmaking #independentwatchmaker
