As 2024 comes to an end, we’re reflecting on what has been an extraordinary year for us in the workshop and for the watchmaking industry as a whole.
Among our proudest milestones was the completion of our first exclusive in-house Project 248 watch, which left the workshop at the end of 2023 to join its new owner. Now we’re looking forward to marking a new chapter in our journey of bespoke craftsmanship as we move to our new business model.
This year also saw us celebrate two years in our beautiful workshop in Leek, Staffordshire, a space that has become the heart of our creativity.
We are honoured to have been recognised by publications around the world, including The Observer, Le Monde, La Repubblica, Vanity Fair, Marie Claire Arabia, Horological Times, Robb Report, and GMT India, among others!
On the literary front, we celebrated the first anniversary of Hands of Time with the release of its paperback edition and translated versions in languages such as Spanish, Italian, Dutch, German, and Polish, bringing our story to new audiences worldwide.
This year also gave us the privilege of showcasing our work at QEST’s The Celebration of Craft event and Rebecca was featured in the Where I Work outdoor exhibition at King’s Cross, London, sharing a glimpse of her passion for craftsmanship with a wider audience.
To cap off the year, we completed the exciting collaboration with Watches of Switzerland, a project that has been both inspiring and rewarding.
Looking back, it has been a year of achievement and growth, and we are excited for what lies ahead in 2025.
Best,
Craig and Rebecca Struthers
