Bespoke Watches

Sometimes an off-the-shelf watch is not enough. You want something more personal, distinctive or extravagant. Or perhaps the watch you really want simply does not exist. That is when we make it. Every bespoke watch is a collaboration between the watchmaker and its future owner. Always exciting. Always beautiful. Always unique.

Service & Repairs

A cracked crystal, an uncomfortable strap, or a mysterious fault that makes your watch run only on Thursdays? Found your grandfather’s silver pocket watch in the garage and wondering whether it could work again?

We repair wristwatches, mantel clocks and wall clocks, and restore vintage timepieces.

We replace batteries, crystals and straps.

Before starting repairs, we send you a list of the proposed work and a quotation.

The Lillenberg Brand

Watches have always fascinated me, but it all began when I received a wristwatch as a gift in my second year at school. A beautiful watch with a white dial and a red seconds hand. It ran smoothly and accurately for several weeks. Then water got under the crystal and it stopped. After a visit to the watchmaker, it ran for another week.

I suspect many people’s first encounters with watches began in much the same way.

For more than ten years, I have taken a deeper interest in watches, spending many days and nights reading and researching. In 2018, I decided that reading was no longer enough: it was time to do something. From the outset, my aim was to turn that research and study into wristwatches that both their owners and their maker could be proud of.

I believe that making a good watch takes more than an idea for striking hands or a dial. That is why I began studying watchmaking at the British Horological Institute in England, of which I remain a member. My studies continue, hopefully for many years to come: centuries of craftsmanship and knowledge are still waiting to be discovered and put into practice. Learning is a journey, and every finished watch is a milestone that brings together the best of the maker’s skills and knowledge at that moment.
