Halloway & Sons make mechanical watches in editions of two hundred and fifty — designed, decorated and regulated at one bench in Clerkenwell, London. The watch beside this sentence is running. It always is.
Domed, double anti-reflective. You will forget it is there — that is the point.
Fired at 830°C in our own kiln. Three dials crack for every one that survives.
Seventy-two hours of reserve, delivered through a train of hand-polished pinions.
Heat-blued by eye over a brass plate. Two degrees too far and the blue is lost.
Free-sprung, adjusted in five positions until it keeps ±2 seconds a day.
904L steel, 38.5 mm. A crown you wind because you will want to.
CÔTES DE GENÈVE — 0.3 MM PITCH
JEWEL 34 OF 34 — OLIVE-DOMED
BALANCE BRIDGE — 4 HRS ANGLAGE
Nothing here is finished by machine that could be finished by hand. Anglage takes four hours per bridge. The enamel kiln ruins three dials for every one we keep. We consider both of these facts a feature.
Each finished watch carries the engraved initials of its maker — and our allocation ledger records which bench, which batch, and which storm delayed the post.

Josiah Halloway opened the bench at 11 Clerkenwell Green to repair marine chronometers for the Thames trade. The pocket watch pictured — Nº 000001 — still keeps time, and still comes back every five years for its service, as every Halloway does.
Each watch is allocated, not sold from a shelf. Tell us who it is for — the caseback preview updates as you type, exactly as our engraver will cut it.
