RussP 22,394 Posted April 25, 2020 Being in iso makes me do things like take several wristies per day. Have dug out my very ancient laptop (as my other one died earlier this week) to be able to keep upto date on the forum. Might not be able to post as often as I like, but will do my best: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I don't believe the company will continue on once the owner retires. The Detroit Watch Company is owned by Patrick Ayoub. He was an automotive designer prior to making watches. He imparts in the watches those aesthetics that are truly Detroit (unlike the utterly fake but hugely successful Shinola). The subtle nods to Detroit history and tradition are evident in his pieces. I am from and currently live in Detroit btw. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am from and currently live in Detroit btw. I’m an Oregonian but found these and immediately fell in love. They always use the top grade eta movements which I love. The chronograph is to die for as are most of them. I’m seriously considering one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
