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

America's participation and dominance on the world stage began with the invention of the American System of Manufacturing.  From about 1850 to 1950 American manufacturers became the largest suppliers of fine mechanical watches to the world.  1970 brought the introduction of the quartz movement as the newest technology, and the mechanical watch industry was nearly put out of commission in both Europe and America.  In 1980 Bulova, the last of the American watch manufacturing titans, closed its doors.  This giant once employed over 7000 people, and though the brand still exists along with other notable American companies like Hamilton, those which remain are now owned by large conglomerates.  Only the names carry on, not the livlihood once offered tens of thousands of families in America.  These events left the United States with no part in the world market of timepiece manufacturing.  We of the Bozeman Watch Company endeavor to reintroduce American watch making, and we give thanks to our friends and clients who have provided so much support and guidance throughout the start of our journey.  Our ultimate goal is 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 designs inspired by mechanical watches of the American watch brands of the 19^th and 20^th Centuries.  The Bozeman Watch Company utilizes exclusively 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 are produced in limited editions of 10 to 200 individually numbered pieces, and most models 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 and Whitefish Montana, with plans for an additional showroom in Jackson Hole Wyoming to be opened in 2012-2013.  The Bozeman retail store and Whitefish retail store locations showcase all mechanical watch models and information on our upcoming Montana watch collection.

"The Bozeman Watch Company Commitment"

The Bozeman Watch Company is committed to manufacturing the most accurate and rare collection of automatic-mechanical timepieces available today. With models produced in collector's runs of no more than 200 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)
