Bespoke Design

Why settle for stock when you can define the dial, hands, and metal? We work with you to draft a timepiece that’s uniquely yours.

Micro-Assembly

Our watchmakers use sterile-lab conditions for movement assembly, ensuring not a single speck of dust interrupts your precision.

Lifetime Overhaul

A mechanical watch is for generations. We provide complete strip-down cleaning and lubrication to keep it ticking through the decades.

The level of detail in the tourbillon is just insane. It's the only thing on my wrist these days.

"I've collected Swiss watches for 15 years, but the bespoke experience at Cogwheel Chronos was something else. They let me choose the specific grade of titanium for the case and even the color of the stitching on the strap. It isn't just a watch; it's a conversation starter."

Nanchito Hamrah, Senior Architect

Why did we choose Cogwheel Chronos? Because their NYC repair team fixed a vintage automatic movement that three other shops said was 'unserviceable'. They are true masters.
