Minuteman Watch Co.'s Darby Automatic

[AtomicTom]

Looks good to me. Especially the stainless/blue. Price?

i believe it's around $400

I like them. Made in the USA is a plus.

Hello as the brand owner I want to clear up things a bit. These are not made in the usa. The leather watch straps are, and the padded zipper cases are. They are also assembled and tested in the US. But things like the movement of course are not made in the US. Therefore we can not say that whole watch is made in the USA under US law.

Oops, sorry I messed up there on the made in the USA thing Thomas. It's fixed above now.

The whole hand assembled, and tested thing is pretty great though, and like you said the straps,
and zipper case are made in the USA. Very cool !!! ..These really look so nice, and have that great
formula of being modern, but still paying that nice tribute to tradition, and vintage watches also.
It's one of those instances where it's really tough choosing a favorite. Which is really neat !

Terrific looking watches, and job all the way around sir !!!

Oh, and thanks so much for the pricing info there Mark !

we should all be like tom

That would be pretty boring.


I do like to imagine Tom punching a hole in his wall every time Terry beats him to posting one of these obscure brand threads though.

It's a design we've been tweaking for a few years now. I am sure there are still ways in which it could be better but we like it pretty well at this point. Once again thanks so much for the kind words. =)

Don't mention it Thomas. Definitely looks like all of the hard work has paid off.

There's a ton to like about these honestly !!!

No ladies version planned. Too much of a niche and a tough one to crack at that. =)
