The
Watchmaker's
Journal

Before there was Pinchbeck, there was Harold Pinchbeck, Paul’s grandfather and a watch and clockmaker in Barton upon Humber. His name still lives on in our watches, while Pinchbeck has become the name we have built the business around.

We see Lincoln Cathedral every day, but sometimes a change in the light makes you notice it all over again. Artist Dominic captured it in the evening, glowing above Castle Square against a deep blue winter sky. It reminded us of home, of dark evenings in Lincoln, and of the feeling that some things remain standing above us, whatever the season brings.

Every Pinchbeck watch leaves our Lincoln workshop with a little story behind it. We know how it was made, who handled it and where it began. Then it leaves us, ready to become part of someone else's story.

The Infinity began with a pattern. A few years later, we've brought it back, with a CNC-cut brass dial, fine detailing and a mechanical movement, assembled to order in our Lincoln workshop.

The Albion and Albion Blue share the same foundations, but take the design in different directions. Explore the story behind two Pinchbeck watches with a distinctly British character.

The Lambeth watches connect Pinchbeck to the River Thames and the historic Race for Doggett’s Coat and Badge. Discover the story behind Lambeth Reach and Lambeth Dark, two different expressions of the same history.

A watch rarely starts with a finished drawing. Go behind the scenes at Pinchbeck to see how colour, art, materials, making and plenty of discussion shape a watch from the first idea to the finished piece.

We work directly opposite Lincoln Cathedral, inside the medieval Exchequer Gate Arch. Come inside our small Lincoln workshop and discover the place where Pinchbeck watches are made, one at a time.

September always feels like a turning point. The summer starts to wind down. The mornings change. The school year begins again and, somehow, everyone starts looking at the months ahead.

A NEW watch inspired by where we live and a painting by Dominic Parczuk.

Four people, four different perspectives and one shared obsession with making good watches. Meet the small team behind Pinchbeck.
