We believe the Mount Vernon is the most versatile watch in our collection, while also being the most accessibly priced. Despite its approachable price point, it exemplifies our dedication to haute horology, showcasing a level of hand-finishing and artistry that other watchmakers reserve for pieces costing orders of magnitude more. This is not a compromise—it’s a testament to our commitment to offering exceptional value without sacrificing craftsmanship or sophistication.
At 40.5mm in diameter and just 11.6mm thick, the Mount Vernon is the ideal modern timepiece. Its proportions, including a 48.5mm lug-to-lug span, ensure a comfortable and refined presence on wrists both small and large. The case is crafted from polished 316L stainless steel, chosen for its timeless luster and durability. A domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating ensures perfect legibility, while a sapphire crystal caseback provides a window to the meticulously finished movement within—blending functionality and elegance in a way few timepieces achieve.
The dial is nothing short of a visual masterpiece—a feast for the eyes. It features deeply textured guilloché patterns, with intricate lines that radiate light and create depth, captivating from every angle. Raised chapter rings frame the dial, their carefully beveled edges catching the light to add brilliance where needed. Breguet numerals, also raised, stand proudly above the textured backdrop, creating a three-dimensional tableau that is both modern and a tribute to the rich traditions of classical watchmaking. Together, these elements form a dial that is timeless, refined, and endlessly fascinating.
For those seeking an even greater level of artistry, the Mount Vernon can be configured with full hand engraving, applied by one of the most talented American craftsmen. We believe this option makes it the most accessibly priced fully hand-engraved timepiece in the world, offering a rare opportunity to own a true work of art that reflects centuries of craftsmanship and tradition.
The Mount Vernon is more than just a watch; it’s a homage to George Washington, whose namesake estate inspires its title. Washington was a man of practicality, discipline, and hard work—qualities that resonate deeply with this timepiece and its creation. As the first design we developed, the Mount Vernon reflects the care, precision, and optimization of our craft, ensuring we deliver an extraordinary level of artistry at a remarkably accessible price.
Like Washington himself, the Mount Vernon is a symbol of timeless elegance, quiet strength, and unwavering dedication to excellence. Whether worn for a formal occasion or as a daily companion, this watch serves as a sophisticated reminder of the history it honors and the artistry it embodies.
