The first watches were pocket watches used by men and kept in their waistcoats. Eventually wealthy women had unique wrist watches created as a fashion accessory. They were small, delicate and expensive, so unlike handmade rings or necklaces, only the affluent could afford them. Seen as a fashion fad, they were not seen as a lasting trend. However, due to war, men found watches more accessible if they were strapped to the wrist and a lasting tradition was born. Once again, fashion followed form as watchmakers created stylish and designer watches for both practical and extravagant uses.
Timepieces are made by a wide range of designers and come in all sorts of precious metals and styles. One example is Watchcraft watches. These works of art are handcrafted in the United States and known worldwide for their high quality and unique designs.
Watchcraft Studios was formed in 1994 by Eduardo Millieris. Watchcraft watches are limited edition pieces that are signed and numbered by Milleiris. Known for their exceptional patina, they are created from recycled metals of bronze, copper, silver and metal alloys. The designs feature distressed and oxidized metals that vary and change depending on the amount of use it receives. No two watches will ever be exactly the same. All watches are of the highest quality and come with a one-year warranty. These watches can be worn everyday or selected for special occasions.
