Jerrie Cobb Solar - JC01
Note: All of our watches are built and shipped from the UK, and so are subject to a tariff of 10% on shipments to the USA. We pay this tariff as we ship, so US customers won’t receive any unexpected fees on delivery. In other words, the price you see and pay at checkout is the price you pay for the watch, nothing more.
Jerrie Cobb Solar ‒ JC01
A tribute to courage, a companion powered by light. The JC01 honours Jerrie Cobb — pioneer aviator, record-breaker, and one of the original Gemini astronaut trainees — with a watch that is as forward-looking as her legacy.
Powered by the Stars
Harnessing the sun’s energy, the JC01 uses a Seiko AS01 solar movement, converting daylight into precision, with a power reserve of approximately four months once fully charged. No battery changes, just perpetual motion.

Why the JC01 Resonates
-
Honouring a Pioneer — Jerrie Cobb’s achievements in aviation and space-flight broke barriers. This watch captures that spirit: bold, uncompromised, visionary.
-
Light-Powered Precision — No winding, no battery changes. Just let it see daylight and it keeps going — a timepiece that works in harmony with nature.
-
Wearable Grace — At 38 mm by 9 mm, it combines presence with subtlety — equally at home under a shirt cuff or out during the day.
-
Personality Through Colour — With a dozen striking colourways, the JC01 isn’t just about telling time — it’s about expressing identity.
The Riley Promise
Hand-built in the UK, the JC01 arrives with fast shipping and a 30-day return policy. Price shown covers global delivery (including the U.S.), so what you see is what you pay — no surprises.
Own a Part of the Skies
Our JC01 offers a rare union: heritage, sustainability, design. More than a watch — it’s a beacon of inspiration, proof that a legacy can shine as bright as the stars.
There is no warehouse. That is rather the point, and it does have consequences.
Every brand here packs and posts its own orders, in its own boxes, with tracked delivery. The brands you can see are the ones that ship to your country, so your parcel is usually making a fairly short journey: a potter in Bristol posting to Britain, a studio in California posting within America.
Which does mean that an order from three brands arrives as three parcels, posted by three different people, on three different days. Whether that is an inconvenience or a small extended birthday rather depends on your temperament. It also means three lots of postage, shown before you pay, because we would rather mention it here than at the till.
Roughly how long
UK Domestic: 2–5 business days
Coming from further afield: 7–14 days. Usually quicker, but let's not prmise and it will be a lovely surprise!
Estimates, not promises. Each brand sends its own tracking, so you will be kept extremely well
Need help? Just ask.Our small team is here.
Fourteen days from delivery to tell us you have changed your mind, and fourteen more to get it back to us. No reason required, and we will not make you give one.
You are allowed to open it and try it on. Handle it as you would in a shop, and we will not quibble. Handle it as you would a rental car and we may deduct something for the difference.
Return postage is yours to pay, because the brand at the other end is a workshop rather than a warehouse. Some cover it themselves, and if yours does you will not be charged. Whatever you paid us to send it out, we refund either way, and the money goes back the way it came within fourteen days of the parcel reaching the brand.
A few things cannot come back, and only these: anything made or personalised to your order, sealed beauty products once the seal is broken, and anything perishable.
If something arrives damaged, faulty or not as described, none of the above applies. It costs you nothing, and we sort it.
Just email mail@brixbailey.com — we'll guide you through it.
