Watch Brand.

Our Cadet field watch echoes the valor and discipline of naval cadets. This limited edition is adorned in the signature colors of the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, reflecting a blend of traditional style and professional-grade qualities. Specifically designed to introduce new collectors to America's finest mechanical watchmaking. Finished by hand for both formal and daily use, functioning as a nod to the enduring spirit and dedication of naval service. Wear your values as an American on your wrist.

A mechanical field watch offered as an entry point into the world of highest-grade mechanical watchmaking. The Recruit is ideal for new collectors and enthusiasts alike, combining the finest traits of a handmade Towson Watch with the build-qualities of a military-grade instrument. Its design pays tribute to the service of Army recruits, featuring an olive green dial with gold SuperLuminova components. The chronometer-grade Swiss movement is encased in hand-forged stainless steel, with a twist-off bezel for easy cleaning in extreme cases of field-use.

New Release

Skeleton watches chase attention—gears bared, dials drowned in noise, all flash, no finesse. The HALF-SKELLY sees it through a watchmaker’s eye, not a jeweler’s. Benzinger’s cut-outs are deliberate, each detail honed to reveal the mechanism of time with clarity and grace. Here, intricacy is purpose—keeping the dial coherent while weaving the watchmaker’s mark into a message for its owner. At four o’clock, Towson Watch Company initials, styled in calligraphy, are carved out of the movement’s base-plate—the pulse beneath frosted silver chapter rings. Miss it if you don’t know the script; it’s a quiet nod for those who do. The HALF-SKELLY isn’t for all. It’s for the few who get it.

HALF-SKELLY: A Collector's Handbook

The Skelly Series moves beyond the aesthetics of skeletonization—it becomes an exploration of what should be revealed and what should remain intact.

A Fresh Discovery for Many, a Refined Classic for the Discerning Few

In watchmaking, tradition is scripture—collectors shaped by a cautious industry favor gentle evolution over revolution. However, new collectors emerge when brands dare to innovate. Preserving this craft demands more than tradition—so it’s the job of indie brands like us to invite intrigue beyond the familiar.

At Towson Watch Company, we design and manufacture high-grade mechanical watches in limited production runs.

Since 1998, our collections have evolved with a clear vision, always executed through the same classical approach to watchmaking. Founded in Towson, Maryland, by master horologists Hartwig Balke and George Thomas, TWC is a pioneer of "the microbrands" and the oldest American watch company still based in the USA.

Unlike brands that just sell watches, we make them—designed, built, and serviced in-house by real watchmakers.
