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.

The Fitzroy collection has been designed to honour the man who made the famous voyage between 1831 and 1836 with celebrated British scientist and naturalist Charles Darwin as his companion. Together they set off on a survey expedition across the Atlantic Ocean to the southern coasts of South America, then via Tahiti and Australia back to England. This voyage was to inspire Charles Darwin’s famous book Origin of the Species.
Captain Fitzroy spared no expense fitting his ship out and so included no less than 22 chronometers on board to aid navigation and help make the accurate measurement of time that was needed then to determine the lines of longitude.
