Garrick Norfolk

Posted on by

Celebrating Great Britain’s rich maritime history, the Norfolk watch by London based Garrick exhibits a traditional aesthetic, imbued with flourishes of individualistic detail. This watch was designed by esteemed freelance designer, Michael Holbeck.

The large nameplate is a key feature of the Norfolk, and is inspired by old instruments which proudly displayed the makers name on a steel or brass plate. The grand feu dial is made entirely in-house using traditional methods. First the dials are turned from silver and an enamel coating is applied to the front and back of the dial to prevent warping.

The fired enamel dial is paired with Garrick’s unique ‘Maritime hands’. The hour and minute hands, with their anchor-like profiles, are produced in-house and thermally blued, in keeping with fine watchmaking tradition.

Housed within a 42mm case (manufactured locally and finished in-house), the hand-wound movement is finished to Garrick’s exacting standards.

Two versions are available to purchase: A flat engraved case-back or Exhibition version with Sapphire crystal and plated movement. The price of the handcrafted Norfolk is £2295 – £2795.
