“It's not a configurator; it's a commission. We talk, we sketch, I build. Your strap, my hands, our vision.”
“My hands, my tools, and the scratches on my workbench.”
Emotional Centre · Brighton Workshop
No “gentlemen”,
just collectors.
I don't love being on camera, so you won't see much of my face. But you'll see my hands, my tools, and the scratches on my workbench that tell a story of every movement I've saved.
This is a queer business where you are assumed, not accommodated. No “his and hers” — we leave the gendered binaries at the door.
Kind words.
“Finally a place where I don't have to explain why I want a 34mm piece. The service was impeccable.”
“The strap commission process was a dream. Seeing it go from a sketch to my wrist... magic.”
A safe place.
A tight block for queer, trans and NB collectors, traders and watchmakers. We keep the supply chain as queer as possible, stated plainly and without apology.
