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.

Paulin

Paulin is a distinctive brand that was founded by the Paulin sisters in 2013, with a strong focus on family, design, and fostering a creative community. The brand's primary objective was to create high-quality, design-led watches. Over the years, they have expanded their product range beyond watches to include leather goods, and they have even ventured into the production of other items like a best-selling wall clock, with plans for an upcoming floor lamp.

One of the key aspects of Paulin's identity is its dedication to using innovative design processes to create simple yet well-designed timepieces and other products. They take pride in hand-assembling all their watches, and the entire manufacturing process takes place in the UK. To maintain the brand's commitment to quality, they incorporate Miyota movements from Japan, which are known for their reliability and precision.

Notably, Paulin goes beyond being just a watchmaker or a product brand. They actively collaborate with local artists and designers, showcasing their work through initiatives like "Art on the Subway," which helps to promote the creative community and bring art to public spaces. Their Edinburgh location serves as a curation space for artists, offering workshops and events to engage with the community and foster a sense of connection and collaboration.
