The Summit Collection: A Strong First Step for New Brand Earthen

Earthen Company is one of the freshest names to enter the watch market, founded in Hong Kong in 2025 by a group of passionate collectors and enthusiasts. Co-founder Jonathan Chan, also a key figure behind The Horology Club, explains that the team approached this project as collectors first, not as traditional watchmakers. 

The result is a debut that doesn’t chase trends but instead offers something unique, a series of ceramic, field- and pilot-inspired watches at an accessible price point. With the launch of the Summit Collection, it’s clear Earthen intends to make an impression from day one.

Atelier de Chronometrie

Hailing from Barcelona, a city far removed from the Swiss mountains, Atelier de Chronometrie crafts one-of-a-kind timepieces entirely by hand. The brand, co-founded by Moebius Rassmman, a watchmaker with over two decades of experience, and Santiago Martínez, a collector and vintage watch dealer specializing in Patek Philippe, shuns modern machinery like CNC in favor of traditional methods. Atelier de Chronometrie draws inspiration from classic design elements and employs conventional manufacturing techniques while incorporating completely restored and revamped vintage Omega movements to power their watches. In every aspect, the brand's creations are a testament to their dedication to authenticity and craftsmanship.
