This Is The Story of A Rebirth.

Back in the 1960s and ‘70s, Octo held the limelight – watches that found a deft balance where boundaries were pushed and individuality expressed. Swiss-born, but internationally established. Distinctively designed, but moderately priced. Worn by everyone from showbiz legends to folks on the street.

Fashions fade though, time ticks on – but if you watch the clock long enough though, history sometimes repeats itself.

Octo Is Back – And Right On Time.

At Octo, we’re catching up on lost time, tapping into those methods, materials and manufacturing from our halcyon days. Ours are vintage-styled pieces made for today – think of them like new-old-stock – true to the ways we used to do it, but better.

Our watches come out looking as fresh as a long locked-away asset, fashioned to be worn right now. Because we believe a vintage timepiece isn’t about the meaning collector’s circles prescribe to it – just the meaning you do.

It’s about that enduring partnership between wearer and watch. Reflections of personality, expressions of your individual experience. The story each timepieces tells – aging with you, scratches from life’s salty moments, building up bits of history that make it ‘your watch’ and no-one else’s.

At Octo, we make vintage watches that stand your personal test of time.

Acrylic Crystal

Feels like a vintage watch, age like a vintage watch

Folded Bracelet

The weight and sound of an old timepiece

Old Machining Techniques

Just like how it was done in the good ol’ days

Made Like The Old Days

Acrylic Crystal

Unlike the standard glass or sapphires of contemporary watches, acrylic lenses embrace a vintage charm that hits just right. Lighter and warmer to the touch, this unique material allows for subtle wear and tear, adding a well-loved character to the watch as time unfolds.

Folded Bracelet

The folded bracelet, with its featherlight feel, offers a kinetic experience that gives the watch a distinct center of gravity and produces a rattle iconic to vintage pieces from the bygone eras.

Old Machining Techniques

This vintage aesthetic boldly rejects convoluted contemporary finishing for a presence defined by sharp angles, simpler brushed or polished finishes, and lug holes drilled all the way through, all nodding to the craftsmanship of yesteryear’s watchmaking.

Vintage Sizing

The modest 37-38mm case diameter whispers tales from an age when sleek, understated watches were the epitome of style. This silhouette gives the wrist an air of sophistication, standing in stark contrast to the larger, more audacious designs of modernity.

Serial Number

Even the serial number and logos are individually stamped with dies and legacy machineries, instead of the more convenient methods employed today.

Here For A Good Time, Not A Long Time

At Octo, we believe our imperfections define us. That’s why our plans are more modest than most. Small-run, limited edition, few of a kind. Watches valued on workmanship – and your worth.

Our collections won’t be around forever and once they’re gone – they’re gone. As the man says, ‘here for a good time, not a long time.’

Time Is Money

Every Octo collection is ‘limited-edition’. That means a set number of watches, agreed at the start and never to toll again.

But that’s just the start, because every piece in our collection is stickered with a unique price-tag, based exclusively on its serial number. #001 might sell for US$101, #002 for US$102 – each individually priced, so you decide the dimes you want to drop.

We call it ‘choose your own adventure’ – a new system where our tickers are set with a value proportional to their serial number. We’re leaving the price tag to you. Choose your lucky number, pick your perfect figure, and find a watch that’s uniquely you.

For us, it’s about the narrative, making sure each and every Octo watch has a story to tell. Not just the brand, not just the collection – the watch itself. Individually numbered, sold at a singular price, and appreciated for the ages like a one-of-a-kind work of art.

Which it is – because time is money, and indecision is often worse than the wrong decision.
