THE MECHANIC

The Mechanic is a hand-wound mechanical watch that honors the simple, tactile analog experiences of life. The name is inspired by the rich history of sign painters in Detroit, who called themselves mechanics in tribute to their precision and skill in conveying information with clarity and stylenot unlike a well-crafted watch.

In keeping with its throwback design, the Mechanic features a domed dial, box crystal, curved hands, and a toothy crown for easy winding. The dial numbers shadow, outline, and fill harken to classic sign painting techniques. A case back window reveals the mechanical manual-wind movement. Finished with a leather strap, the Mechanic is a truly unique addition to the watch lovers repertoire, with a plucky wind-it-yourself attitude and style to spare.

Note: Due to the unique nature of the PVD Khaki coating of the stainless steel case, color tone may vary between timepieces, making each unique to its owner.
