THE

WATCHMAKER’S
SPECIAL

Sometimes we ignore the plan.

PINCHBECK WATCHES LINCOLN MAKERS

Our Watchmaker's Special began as a way of using spare components, but it didn't stay that way for long.

 

Today it's where our watchmaker Rob, and our designer Jason, get to experiment.

 

A different dial, an unusual combination of parts, an idea that needs a home.

 

There are no launch calendars, no annual schedule and sorry,

 

no promises about what's coming next.

A Watchmaker's Special appears when it's ready.

Sometimes there’s one.

 

Sometimes there are three.

 

Sometimes there are none.

 

But isn’t that part of the appeal?...

Built. Finished. Ready To Wear.

ONE WATCH.
ONE OPPORTUNITY.

Unlike our made-to-order collection of watches, Watchmaker's Specials are completed before they're offered for sale.

 

Each one is a completely one-of-kind British handmade watch.

 

And what you see is exactly what exists.

WATCHMAKER’S
SPECIAL

Watchmaker's Specials are never listed for sale on the website.

 

They are offered exclusively through...

The Watchmaker’s List

When a new piece is approaching completion, members receive advance notice so they know to keep an eye on their inbox.

 

Once the watch is ready, details are sent to The Watchmaker's List first.

 

The first person to claim it becomes its owner.

 

That's it.

No waiting list.
 
No auction.
 
No public release.
 
Just one watch finding the right wrist.

Watchmaker’s Specials

Every Watchmaker's Special starts with an idea, some have been one-offs, others have appeared as very small runs, but once sold, they become part of the archive.
