About Graham

Graham is an unrepentantly English name for an exquisitely English watch. If you're interested in the minutiae of watch making, Graham was the surname of George Graham, born in 1673, master watchmaker who lived in Fleet Street in London.

George Graham learned his trade from Henry Aske and went on to work for Thomas Tompion. Graham and Tompion moved from being colleagues to friends, with George marrying Tompion's niece, Elizabeth. In 1713, after Tompion's death, Graham took over the business premises.

London had a business culture, the world's first scientific society and a navy all of which had pressing time keeping requirements.

Graham became a veritable pillar of the scientific and clock-making establishment and in 1721, he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society and contributed over twenty papers to its scientific journal, the Philosophical Transactions. George Graham became Master of the Clockmakers' Company in 1722.

The engineers, designers and watchmakers at Graham create a form of mechanical perfection that doesn't look or feel like just another Swiss watch. Instead, it is one that has its own quirky way of doing things.

And indeed, Graham watches have a certain confidence about them. They're not shy and retiring. They've got big movements, big pushers and slightly bigger hands than most.

Graham uses mechanisms and materials in a slightly different way. For example, the trigger mechanism that starts the stopwatch, the use of ceramic and carbon fibre. Graham only uses chronometer quality movements.

Graham goes to slightly potty lengths to create a shock resistant Tourbillon. Their watch wearers don't spend their lives gardening. They do stuff and that means grief for a watch mechanism. Graham devotes years to cracking problems like that. George Graham would have been proud.
