By November 2024 we expect to finish our "Commercial Co-Venture" paperwork with the CBF. This is a partnership that follows the Better Business Bureau’s guidelines on partnerships between for-profit and non-profit organizations where a portion of sales/profits/transactions is being donated to a non-profit.

The founder, Mike, has been a lifelong resident of the mid-Atlantic, at times calling Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, and Pennsylvania home. He counts his time living in Bel Air, Maryland and the inner harbor of Baltimore as his strongest touchpoint to the Chesapeake area.

There’s two reasons we don’t currently offer these:

Value: For our sub-$400 price point, high-quality steel bracelets are a rarity. When we find a worthy bracelet, we’ll offer it. As the company takes off and our manufacturing quantities grow, this will become more achievable.

Design: We promise that our watches will turn heads. A world of colors, textures, and details is opened up by using leather, silicone, sailcloth, and NATO straps. We enjoy offering an appealing strap whose color and texture fits with the inspiration behind the watch.

No! We don’t rely on generative AI programs like ChatGPT or Midjourney for any part of our watch design, watch descriptions, website creation, or photography. We can’t imagine the spirit of the Chesapeake region being represented by anything auto-generated by a computer.
