Bozeman Watch Company has a vision of the re-emergence of American Watch making and time keeping innovation. We are that you are taking time to visit our company site and review our timepieces.

America's partitpation became a dominant country with the invention of the American System of Manufacturing.  From about 1850 to 1950 America manufacturers became the largest suppliers of watches to the world.  In the 1970's with the introduction of the Quartz movement as the newest technology, the mechanical industry was nearly put out of commission in both Europe and America.  In 1980 the last of the American Watch Manufacturing titans, Bulova closed its doors.  This giant once employed over 7000 employees and though the brand still exists amongst others like Hamilton, they are now owned by large conglomerates and only the name exists not the livlihood it once offered tens of thousands of families in America.  These events left America with no part in the world market of timepiece manufacturing.  With the effort to reintrodcue American watch making comes participation we give much thanks to our friends and cients who have provided so much support and guidance throughout the start of our journey to provide the world with a new perspective and style that has been long lost with trendy and mass produced brands.

The Bozeman Watch Company is an American Watch Manufacturer located in Bozeman Montana USA.  As an original parts manufacturer, our American watch brand is the start of a re-emergence of original American Watch designs inspired by mechanical watches of the American watch brands of the 19^th and 20^th century.  The Bozeman Watch Company utilizes nothing but original made watch parts, designed and engineered by its own staff of experts and professionals.  Coupling original designs with the multi-generational expertise of Swiss and German part manufacturers, Bozeman has successfully manufactured more than 10 timepieces models since 2004.  All models, which are limited to 10 to 150 individually, numbered pieces, are certified Chronometers by the Geneva based COSC (Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres).  Each movement that is built for Bozeman Watches undergoes 15 days of rigorous accuracy testing and regulation to meet the highest standards in the watch manufacturing industry.

We are an original watch manufacturer based in Bozeman, Montana USA.  As an American Watch Manufacturer, our Bozeman Watch Company original timepieces are sold exclusively through our company showrooms in Bozeman, Montana, Whitefish Montana and soon Jackson Hole Wyoming.   Our newest retail expansion our Jackson Hole Wyoming showroom,  will be open in the summer of 2011.  The Bozeman retail store and Whitefish retail store location showcase all mechanical watch models and information on our upcoming Montana watch collection.   These hand made Montana watches are as rugged and refined as they are rare.  Each piece is developed first as a pencil illustration, then as the concept advances, engineering of the parts and watch data furthers the concept and soon follows the final 3 dimensional product images, ready for part prototyping and tooling in preparation of final manufacturing and assembly.  The exquisite mechanical movements in each model are built to specification during the design process which are made and assembled over a period of 18 to 25 months depending on complexity and modification.  These specialty movements are built by some of finest movement makers in the world. 

It would be our privilage to assist with your questions an an honor to provide you with one of our limited edition timepieces.

With models produced in collector's runs of no more than 100 individual pieces, each of the "Montana Class Watch Collection" is limited to only the most discerning clientele worldwide. Each watch model of the "Montana Class Watch Collection" is a certified Swiss chronometer - the highest level of distinction a mechanical timepiece can attain for accuracy in timekeeping, and the most coveted distinction a timepiece can ever earn.

• Pre-assembly, each movement undergoes 15 days of continous testing, regulation and calibration by an independant, third-party control agency known as the Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres in the Valle' de Joux, Switzerland.
• This process includes almost thirty individual ratings that are derived from a series of continous tests at a number of temperatures and angles
• The certification process is only undertaken by and awarded to 3% of the entire Swiss mechanical movement market, and in the American market next to 0, a proportion that "underscores the exceptional nature of a chronometer. To earn chronometer certification, a movement must not only be made from the highest quality components, but also be the object of special care on part of the finest watchmakers and timers during assembly."(courtesy Wikipedia)
