In 2025, the term microbrand is everywhere. It suggests small scale, direct access to the maker—and all too often, outsourced production and catalog parts. Long before the label existed, Towson Watch Company quietly defined what the term could mean: designing, engineering, and building meaningful watch collections on American soil.

This is the story of Towson Watch Company’s STS-99 Chronometer. A watch that put American watchmaking back on the map, stamping itself in history as one of the first automatic watches worn in outer-space.

"Art is a sphere in which imagination and creative skill is used to make things of aesthetic significance."

Incorporating elements of local culture into our watches allows us to create timepieces that resonate with the enduring spirit of industry in the Chesapeake region and celebrate the heritage that defines us as an American watch brand.
