Restarting The Collector’s Series was already in the planning for quite some time. Not easy with our small team, especially since part of the team is on the road a lot, so the current situation proved to be the right moment to reach out to some friends and ask them to participate. The reason why […]
After S1 and S2 naturally comes S3. Since Garrick’s introduction of the S1 in 2018, the UK based brand is dedicated to honouring traditional skills, with respect to English-style watchmaking and craftsmanship from a bygone era. This third iteration follows the same design language as the previous models and at first, might not seem that […]
