The American Watchmaking Directory is a comprehensive online resource that connects watchmakers, suppliers, and artisans across the United States. We provide a centralized platform where watch enthusiasts, collectors, and industry professionals can discover and connect with the finest American watchmaking talent, from heritage brands to innovative newcomers.

The American Watchmaking Directory is a volunteer-driven initiative created and maintained by two passionate watch enthusiasts in Seattle, Washington: Hamza (Head of Partnerships at WatchCharts and Seattle RedBar chapter organizer) and Vivek (Software Development Engineer at Expedia).

No, we are completely independent and not affiliated with any of the watch brands listed in our directory. We maintain editorial independence and do not receive compensation from brands for listings. Our goal is to provide unbiased information to help users discover American watchmaking talent.

Simply browse our directory page to explore American watch brands. You can search by brand name, location, or founding year. Use our filters to narrow down results by country, state, or time period. Each listing includes contact information, website links, and social media profiles to help you connect directly with the brands that interest you.

While our primary focus is on American watchmakers, we also include select Canadian brands to provide a comprehensive North American perspective. Our mission is to highlight the watchmaking talent and innovation happening across the continent, with a special emphasis on supporting domestic manufacturing and craftsmanship.
