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.
Feels like a vintage watch, age like a vintage watch
The weight and sound of an old timepiece
Just like how it was done in the good ol’ days
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.
