Back in the 1880's the United States was the home of the world's finest watchmakers, but slowly production moved to other places in the world. I think we have all heard that story before. But there are just a handful of real watch engineers left in the U.S.A. who pride themselves on handmade hand carved watches that are so luxurious that no other maker in the world can match the craftsmanship.

To say these timepieces are limited edition is an understatement. Only about 100 Towson watches are made in an entire year. Each one is built by hand to standards that just don't exist in normal factories. The experts at the Towson Watch Company, in Maryland, don't just build the world's most exquisite watch, they also spend part of their time restoring watches for major museums. George Thomas and Hartwig Balke have crafted the beautiful 17 jeweled masterpiece with front and back sapphire crystals that reveal the oversized rubies in the watch suited only for the true connoisseur. The small sweep second hand design is desired by the most knowledgeable collectors because of the complexity of the movement.

Every individual part passes a stringent quality control test; even the hands are diamond cut for perfection. The band is genuine crocodile leather with a butterfly clasp. You will enjoy winding this watch and seeing the superb movement come to life. If you agree with Winston Churchill who said "I am easily satisfied with the very best" then rediscover the quality of the best in the U.S.A.
