Shoreham Snowdon

Anyone have any experiences with this somewhat new company? A really attractive GMT at a low price but a little concered about the 14mm thickness. Anyone have thoughts? Hard to find a crosshair GMT with blue lume which checks off the boxes for me. Anyone know a better option for the ~500 range?

I like that!! 😍👍🏻👍🏻

No experiences I’m afraid, but I do love a more dressy GMT.

It’s a little sportier, but the Christopher Ward C65 Dune keeps the bezel off.

Otherwise, the Kurono Tokyo GMT retains the bezel, but isn’t the big dive watch take on a GMT. Feels much more ‘day at the office’ or a dinner to me.

*sorry, realised these are very much outside of your budget!

The CW looks great but im a little iffy on the shade of green. Maybe it looks better in person

Thanks for pointing out Soreham, cool brand, I realize I have a thing with british watchmaking.

Slightly over your budget but it's the only I can remember without outer bezel for the 24hr is the Traska Venturer (685$) : https://www.traskawatch.com/products/venturer-gmt-arctic-white

If I wasn't in love for the Christopher Ward C63 GMT, I would go for the Traska with my eyes closed.

Never heard of them but looks great!

Is the logo meant to be an arrow or a mushroom? 😂

Hope someone can post one soon as I want to see if this loves it to my expectations as I am on a British watch collection trend at the moment but have made my purchase for this year

Hey Cooke, I actually stumbled upon an old swiss watch this EXACTLY copies. Kinda disappointing. I forgot the name of it but was let down, thought this was more orginial. I also emailed this company a while ago and they never got back to me which for a small company isn’t the best PR. Oh well

That's a shame on both counts. I am going to a Watch Fair in Birmingham in June and hoping they add themselves to list of those on display so I can see one in person.

Hi Mouses,

I would love to find which model watch you noted with similarities to the Snowdon, as its always a pleasure to see what designers were putting out during the golden years of mechanical watches! As the designer for Shoreham, i do take inspiration from many different watches with a design ethos of a contempory take on vintage watches, but all of the design ideas that form end up as a distinct and unique modern watch.

I can only apologise for the previous lack of communication, i am a one man operation and am getting married in the coming months so have had to focus on other things. I am currently designing some new and exciting releases and following my wedding will be continuing to push new contect from my brand!

Thanks for the reply, congratulations on your upcoming marriage I remember how all consuming mine was so can see how it would be hard to run a microbrand at the same time.

Looking forward to future posts showing off your designs!
