Custom builds - design your own
Design your own by picking out your own parts - movement, dial, hands, and a stainless steel case & strap, each priced individually. Two movements to start from: a classic automatic or a mecha-quartz chronograph. From £45.
Custom builds can't be ordered yet - they open once our first pre-orders have been sent out.

The process
How it works
Choose your kit

Follow the guide
Instructions walk you through every stage.
Wear it
When the movement starts ticking, you'll have built a real working watch. One that belongs entirely to you.
Why Wristbuilt

No experience needed
Our kits are designed so that anyone with patience can complete them. No prior watchmaking knowledge required.
Real watches, real movements
These aren't display pieces. Every kit is built around a genuine movement, automatic or mecha-quartz.
A skill that stays with you
Once you've built one, you'll understand how a watch actually works.
