Wade Automatic Watch Form 1
Rather Good Isn't It? A Watch That Actually Makes Sense
Meet the Wade, our first automatic watch—the result of rather a lot of trial, error, and the occasional cup of tea with our design team. Named after Mrs. Wade, one of those genuinely inspiring teachers, this watch refuses to apologise for being a bit different. We can't promise it's perfect for everyone, but we rather hope it might be absolutely splendid for you.
Why Choose Our Wade Automatic Watch
Single Hand, Utterly Fetching Design: Drawing from the romance of 16th century pocket watches, the Wade features a gloriously simple single-hand movement paired with a date window and constantly ticking seconds aperture. One hand, twelve hours, one full rotation. Beautifully crafted intuition on your wrist.
Exhibition Case Back: Because what's the point of owning something fabulously made if you can't watch it work? The sapphire case back reveals the beating heart of your watch, a constant reminder of why mechanical timepieces rather matter.
Marine Grade Engineering: Cut from 316L stainless steel with a curved double-domed sapphire crystal, this properly handsome 40mm case is brushed to perfection with a polished bezel. Built to last, designed to impress.
Super LumiNova Hands: Solid cast hands that glow rather nicely in low light, because telling the time shouldn't require a torch.
Italian Leather Strap: Black croc print calf leather with white topstitching and a quick-release butterfly clasp. Discreetly embossed with our B and B mark.
