About Tower Watch Company
Tower Watch Company was founded in 2019 by a watch enthusiast, as an additional brand, to bring Denmark into the forefront of watchmaking.
The brand is planned to to be in the affordable to entry-level price ranges, and make tributes to tower building around the world.
Of course production will start out to be outsourced. The plan is to team up with companies in Denmark, Germany and Switzerland.
Timeline
Founded in the Danish town of Høng
Looking for partners that we want to work with to produce our watches
Approached by potential partner from China. Initial discovery and negotiations started
Initial design ideas, design language
Negotiations with potential partner from China stopped. Their capabilities didn't quite meet our minimal demands
Found a (yet undisclosed) potential partner that we would eventually approach. A Swiss company that could produce all parts and do all assembly
Decided not to market watches as Swiss made, not even on the dials. It's a Danish brand and the Swiss made marketing seems a bit hollow at this point
Research into which materials should ideally be used
We now know which materials we want to use ideally (yet undisclosed), however we still need to know if things are possible
Unfortunately we discovered that the potential partner found is no longer an option. We expect the pandemic to be the cause
Found a new (yet undisclosed) potential partner that we would eventually approach. A German company that could produce at least cases, dials, hands etc. and do assembly
Found another (yet undisclosed) potential partner that we would eventually approach. A Swiss company that could produce movements
We have established a list of banned countries. Our watches are not allowed to be owned by citizens of those countries or worn in those countries. Violation of this ban will result in the serial numbers in question will be deemed fake. Russia and Belarus will be on this ban list indefinitely.
The original dial design concept has changed in order to be able to have more creative freedom
A logo design idea has been developed
If it's going to be indefinite we'll see, but probably not for less than 50 years
