The Carter
The Struthers’ first pocket watch, The Carter, was the only recommissioned timepiece from our Tailor-Made series to feature our parachute shock setting.
During the build, clients worked directly with Craig and Rebecca Struthers to see your dream watch come to life.
The process was documented in a digital bespoke build book which was supplied with the watch on completion.
The final Carter has been completed. We are no longer commissioning watches in this collection.
