The watch industry may be reeling from the China crises, let alone tariffs. But you wouldn’t know it on the microbrand scene, where small brands are popping up like dandelions at the first sign of spring.
Not all of them make it through the summer, of course. But some, like Brew Watch Co., have comfortably taken root and only get stronger with every passing year.
The fan-favorite brand turned 10 this year and has decided to celebrate the occasion by releasing what is easily its most impressive watch of the past decade.
Making moves, manually
The limited-edition Metric Manual Wind uses the existing Metric as a jumping off point. As such, it features a familiar 36mm rounded square case with an integrated-bracelet design, reminiscent of iconic sports watch from the ’70s and ’80s.
That said, it brings a handful of premium flourishes absent from the mainline Metric watch, first released in 2020.
