Hello!
Hey everyone! First off, I want to express my gratitude for all the amazing support, feedback, and encouragement I've received while starting my watch brand, WorkWatchCompany. You all have been incredible, making this journey even more exciting! If you'd like to stay in the loop with our latest updates, drop me a message with your email address.
Now, let me properly introduce myself. I'm a bit of an introvert, and honestly, the idea of sharing my watch designs and my story at first was a little nerve-wracking, lol. But thanks to all of you being so kind, it's become a lot easier. So, here's the story of how I got into watch designing and crafting my very first timepiece.
I have this tendency to get really addicted to things. 😅 It all started with buying a bike, which led me to sell my car and bike to work instead. Then I got into running and even started swimming lessons, which were quite comical in a bad way, to say the least! But with the support of an amazing triathlon mentor, I decided to take on a triathlon in 2014 and surprised myself by making the swim cutoff time and finishing the race. That race changed my perspective from 'what if I can't' to 'what if I can'!
Fast forward a bit, and I got my first mechanical watch, a Seiko 5. But I needed one that could keep up with my supervisor's different time zone. That's when I stumbled upon Seiko 'modding' and built my own GMT watch. It was a blast, but I wanted to create something truly unique. Around the same time, I got into 3D printing to customize my bike's hydration system, and that's when it hit me - why not 3D print my own watch?
Although 3D printing wasn't the ultimate solution, the idea stayed with me, and that's how WorkWatchCompany was born! Now I'm here to bring you awesome watches, crafted with hard work, consistency, and a whole lot of fun. So let's forget about those 'what ifs' and dive into some truly remarkable timepieces you'll absolutely adore!
Can't wait to share our latest designs, updates, and special offers with you through our mailing list. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions, feedback, or simply to chat about watches and adventures. Your support and enthusiasm mean everything to me! 🙌

Newish to watches but love them to death. Working on my own brand. Coming soon!
Thanks for taking the time to write your post! 3-D printing a watch sounds interesting!

Thank you! Interesting indeed. And I still use 3D printing to rapid prototype the basics, but the tolerances, even for metal 3D print with laser is very far off for watches. It would still have to be machined in critical areas for it to work. And raw 3D printed surfaces plain old don’t look good.
