Coffee breaks are some of the best moments of the day. This is especially true for the founders of Brew Watch Co. The company was founded on the philosophy that a coffee break is about savoring time and the flavor of a perfect cup of coffee. The new Brew Retrograph Espresso combines a concept of early 1930s timepieces with the importance of creating the perfect cup of espresso today. During the ’30s, a specific category of chronograph watches were dubbed “telephone timers”. They were designed with special markings that highlighted a range between every 3 minutes on the subdial register. After each three-minute marker was reached, it would remind the wearer that they needed to insert another coin in the meter to continue their call.
The new Brew Retrograph Espresso watch offers markers that signal a range between 25 and 35 seconds, the amount of time needed to make the perfect espresso shot. This 38 x 41.5mm timepiece embodies all that is espresso with a brown leather quick release strap, a handsome café au lait dial with a rich sunray effect that is complemented by the matte brown finish of the sub-dials. Inspiration for this classy and clever watch is drawn from industrial espresso machines. You don’t have to love the perfect shot of espresso to appreciate the Brew Retrograph Espresso. However, there is no doubt this watch speaks to baristas and anyone who looks forward to their daily coffee break.
