REDEFINING THE NEW CLASSIC
Named after the legendary watchmaker whose timepieces helped guide Charles Darwin's voyage around the world, a spirit of adventure and exploration lies at the heart of the Thomas Earnshaw ethos. Each collection of watches is named after an iconic explorer, location or vessel that perfectly embodies the values of Thomas Earnshaw: courage to go beyond the expected.
THE THOMAS EARNSHAW ETHOS
Our vision is simple: to make great watches at exceptionally fair prices. Inspired by the 'Father of the Modern Chronometer' and a love for vintage watchmaking techniques, in 2012 Thomas Earnshaw set out to fill a unique gap in the market. With a nostalgia for the golden age of elegance and watchmaking, we aimed to go beyond the expected and redefine the new classic - and our watches have done just this.
OUR LEGACY
Thomas Earnshaw watches are designed to be different. Drawing inspiration from the past, with a unique, vintage-inspired aesthetic unlike any other brand, each timepiece showcases fine craftsmanship and fantastic watchmaking techniques, at a fair price. Known for our intricate, skeletonised movements and exhibition case backs, we're constantly testing new materials, colour combinations and techniques to reimagine the classic watch for today.
