We have just launched the Bre & Co. Carbon Origami Watch. It’s our second watch The case is machined out of carbon fiber which shimmers with tiger-stripes. It’s not easy to machine carbon fiber, it is such a tough material that it wears out machining bits much faster than other materials. We’ve created a custom dial for this watch. The dial itself is aluminum with a black coating that has been etched to reveal a subtle Bre & Co. pattern. At 3.4 ounces, this watch is a little less than half the weight of the stainless steel version and just like the stainless steel version of this watch, it contains a 3909A Eterna movement inside.

On the back of the watch is a 1/2 ounce American Eagle gold coin, for post apocalyptic emergencies.

It comes in a wooden box machined out of relcaimed walnut.

We just got our first articles and they are perfect and we are in production and taking orders. It will ship in the new year. 3 of the edition of 99 are already spoken for. Check out the new Bre & Co. Carbon Origami Watch on our website.

We are having an open house on December 6th at our workshop in the Navy Yard so you can see what you’re doing and buy things for the holidays. It’s open to the public, but you need a pass to get into the yard, so if you’d like to come, just reach out to concierge@bre.co and we’ll get you a pass.
