a one of one, for a one of one.

. STARTED WITH WOOD! . @makerwatchcompany started with the vision of making a wood watch with an automatic skeleton movement that was visually appealing and personal to each client's personality. . The first hand made OG watch took almost 6 months of trial and error. We started with investing in a basic used 30-something year old lathe and chisel set and Mowgli went at it until OG was born. . Our first 50ish watches were all wood cases, not stabilized and carved by hand end to end. We have since developed an in house stabilization and casting process, partnered up with @derangeddonkey for all external cast sourcing, introduced higher quality components and finishes with our own branding, tranitioned to a leather straight strap with deployment clasp and now use an @iconiccnc to cut our cases. . When we had to pick a design for our OG client @warrentyy 2nd watch we decided to go back to our roots and send him this all wood case in 2.0 form despite many of hybrid options available on hand. From what we have learnt over our relationship is Warren is a classy individual where less complexity means more value in his day to attire. A Maker will compliment his personality subtly and not define him. . Seeing this all wood case in 2.0 form really hit a spot for us as we have been pumping out so many hybrids as of late. It reminded us of where and why we started and that helps with moving forward everyday. .

. Our 159th build "SDVC II" goes to our friend @_sarb . Sarb wears suits daily in the office as he meets with clients frequently. Like most men, a lot of his formal wardrobe is composed of navy and black tones. When we met with Sarb we agreed to create a build for him that would integrate with his formal attire and also incorporate a natural wood element to compliment his casual attire for when he is out with his family. . The solution was a hybrid round case with green dyed wood and a navy resin river. We also added 12 hour markers filled with white luminous resin. . The gold movement with gold hands is a classy contrast to the primarily navy case, green wood and navy straps. . For a personal touch we embroidered his son's first name and DOB on the inside of the strap. . We're really happy with how clean and classy this piece came out and enjoyed delivering this to Sarb recently! . #bespokemakers #makersgonnamake #SDVCLLP #mississauga #businessattire #casualstyle #menswork #mensfashionworld #customdesigns #Customwatch #watchesofinsta #resinwatch #LeatherCraft #NavyWatch #mensgiftidea #giftforhusband
. For today's caption we're crediting and sharing our top comment from yesterday's post! . "Justin and Nibin, you have created a masterpiece! I can’t stop admiring this watch - it’s simplicity is captivating - it is now my favourite! Not only was this “vintage “ carbon fibre prepreg in my freezer for over forty years, it is from the same batch of material that I made the world’s first two carbon fibre violins in 1979! Unique and rare, you now need to repeat this build and offer it as a limited edition timepiece. My 001 violin has been designated as being of outstanding significance and national importance and, is with the @ontariosciencecentre ....so this watch is historically linked to the first carbon fibre violin. Bravo!!!" - @yyzaviator . We also need to give credit to @ryanjmani for sticking to his vision in order to make this one happen. It took a couple of attempts with different iterations of carbon fiber to get this to Ryan's vision. Achieving a vision is hard at times (we're working on ways to make it easier) and it may drag out the process for months, take time and resources but in the end our purpose is to bring our clients vision to life and glad we could have ultimately achieved that while leveraging some history into the build. . We're honored and humbled to say the least with everyone's feedback!! 👊🏽🙏🏽😊 . #carbonfiberparts #carbonfibereverything #carbonfiberwrap #carbonwatch #carbonfiberwatch #carbonfibergang #carbonfiberring #carbonfiberelement #carbonfiberart #fibercarbon #carbonfiberlife #carbonfiberjewelry #carbonfiberfriday
. We took some pre-preg #CarbonFiber from the late 1970's given to us by @yyzaviator and finally got to make @ryanjmani his carbon fiber watch after months of patiently waiting! . This 157th build encapsulates a piece of history and is our first all resin and CF case made in house. . Who wants to see more variations of carbon fiber watches? . #carbonkevlar #aerospaceengineering #interestingthings #blackwatches #bombardier #inventors #pioneers #watchmaniac #watchcommunity #watchfreak #dailywatch #artwatchers
