Doing watches the hard way.
When I first started this watchmaking project I reached out to a bunch of other microbrands with questions about how they were machining their cases or crowns, or hands. The answer was always the same. They were outsourcing the parts. All of the parts.
Four years in, I can understand why almost all brands get someone in Asia or Switzerland to make their watch components. Making them yourself is a giant pain in the ass.
