From Alberta, Canada: I’ve always enjoyed watches: learning a lot about technical aspects along with artistic attraction & functionality. I don’t like the aesthetics of ‘dive’ nor ‘plain fashion’ watches. Many vintage (Automatic and Quartz) designs from the 1950s-1970s appeal to me. Recently, I’ve learned a lot about Swiss & Japanese Automatic Mechanicals + Canadian MicroBrands.

The last watch that crapped out on me was about 35 years ago. It was a durable Casio, but it got hit in an industrial door closure and cracked. Freak accident.
Yes. Absolutely. I maintain a Facebook page (Polar Park Breweries) with a list of the places our products are available. It is also accessible via our website: polarpark.ca
I’ve made a post on my page regarding Canadian watch brands. There are over 15 brands. After I’ve listed each one by name, I included a link to each brands website. I own 6 Canadian microbrand watches myself. Please take a look….😊
