What Makes It Uncommon

Quality Time

You might think it takes years to master the art of handcrafting watches, and typically you'd be right. But with about three hours and this handy kit (which includes all the parts, tools, and instructions necessary), you can make a mechanical watch of your very own. Here are the tech specs of the timepiece you'll make: a hand-wound, 17-jewel, ETA 6497-1 model mechanical movement; a 44mm-diameter sapphire glass case that's 5 ATM waterproof; and a vegan-suede strap. Gift this set to the watch nerds, engineers, and tinkerers you adore and they'll have the time of their lives (pun very much intended) putting it all together. Assembled in Los Angeles, California.

This item ships directly from the maker. If you order today your item will ship no later than 5/23/2025.

Items that are made to order or oversized can't be sent in a Gift Box. Instead, you can include your Gift Message on the shipment's packing slip.  At this time, this item cannot be shipped to APO/FPO addresses, or to U.S. Territories including Minor Outlyling Islands. Contact custom@uncommongoods.com with any questions.

Shipping outside of the U.S.? You will be quoted a specific delivery timeframe at checkout, based on your destination country and the available shipping methods. See International FAQ for more info.
