BRITISH WATCHMAKING - ANY FAVORITES?

Greetings, everyone! I trust you're having a splendid day. I had the pleasure of discovering some exceptional British watchmakers last year. I'd love to hear your thoughts or learn about your favorite brands from that part of the world. Today, I have on my wrist the Marlo Watch Company GMT DAY—an extraordinary British micro-brand renowned for its remarkable value. The dial of this particular timepiece takes inspiration from the cold, light blue Scottish skies. What's your take on it?

For me it has to be Vortex. One of the dirty dozen and still going (again) 👍

As the owner of a Marloe Pacific 52 and a Farer Lander Midnight, I'm a big fan of British makers. anOrdain and Fears make lovely watches, too.

I’m not familiar with Marlo. I was thinking about Christopher Ward or Farer.

Here are my current British watches.

Hopefully getting my Studio Underdog Goofy Panda this month.

Christopher Ward, CWC, Vortex would be my favorites.

Smiths, Farer and Zero West are also worth mentioning 👍

How many of these are British companies rather than British made. I would love to own a British made watch but not bothered by a British owned company that makes watches elsewhere.

I was looking for a unconventional diver and I found one in their collection. Than I got the GMT
