Introducing – The British-Made Garrick Regulator with Engine-Turned Dial

British watchmaker Garrick has just unveiled a new version of its popular Regulator timepiece, complete with gorgeous engine turned dials. Launched in 2016, the initial run of Regulator watches was limited to just 15 pieces. Since then, it’s proven itself to be one of the independent brand’s most popular models. Now, it seems Garrick has finally bowed to the pressure of repeated requests for more watches to be made, much to the delight of brand’s devoted following we’re sure.

One such notable player is a small, British-based watch-maker by the name of Garrick Watch Co.
