Care & Maintenance

Hand-wound mechanical watches require gentle care to preserve their longevity. Wind your watch daily by turning the crown clockwise—typically 20-30 turns suffice. Store in a cool, dry environment away from magnetic fields. Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations. The engraved bronze case will naturally develop a beautiful patina over time; this aging process adds character and authenticity. Should servicing become necessary, consult a qualified horologer experienced with mechanical timepieces.

The Steampunk Philosophy

Steampunk celebrates the “what if” of alternate history, imagining a world where Victorian-era aesthetics merged with advanced mechanical innovation. This pocket watch embodies that philosophy—it’s functional art that questions our relationship with time itself. In an age of smartphones and smartwatches, choosing a hand-wound mechanical piece is a rebellious act of deliberation and presence.

Every second that ticks by is a moment you’ve chosen to be intentional. Make it count. Make it brass. Make it steampunk.
