From Pforzheim to Baltimore

Every Towson Watch is the work of many hands

A Towson Watch is never made alone. Each one draws on a web of trusted partners — family ateliers in Pforzheim, Swiss movement makers, fellow American watchmakers, and a skilled bench in Baltimore.

Not one workshop — a web of craft

Towson Watch Company has never worked alone. From the beginning, every watch has drawn on a network of specialists, each contributing the part of the craft they do best — cases, dials, and components from family ateliers in Pforzheim, Germany; movements from Switzerland; and assembly, regulation, and finishing here in Maryland.

That network now reaches from Europe to Baltimore. Alongside the European ateliers, the brand collaborates with fellow American watchmakers — including Roland Murphy of RGM — and works with Baltimore Watch Company, the skilled local bench that keeps service and long-term care close to home.

The roots are local. The craft is international. The future is being built here in Maryland.

Two Worlds, One Brand

Local roots. International craft.

Towson Watch Company has always carried two worlds at once. The Baltimore Watch Company relationship strengthens one without changing the other.

In Maryland

Baltimore & Towson

Baltimore Watch Company brings bench strength and operational infrastructure to the brand. Assembly, regulation, repair, and long-term service stay close to skilled watchmakers in Baltimore and close to the people who understand Towson Watches.

In Europe

Pforzheim & Switzerland

The rare supplier relationships behind Towsons cases, dials, components, and finishing remain essential and unchanged. The international craft chain that defines the brand continues exactly as before.

Close to the brand. Close to the bench.
The Network

The hands behind every watch

Each Towson Watch passes through several workshops across two continents — every one chosen for the craft it brings.

Pforzheim, Germany

The Ateliers

Family workshops in founder Hartwig Balke's hometown produce the cases, dials, and components to Towson's exact specifications — the rare European relationships that have defined the brand since 1998.

American Collaboration

RGM · Roland Murphy

Towson collaborates with fellow American watchmakers — among them Roland Murphy of RGM, whose mechanical architecture underpins the STARMARK, a collaborative American moonphase.

Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore Watch Company

Led by Alan Tsao, Baltimore Watch Company is the local bench — assembly, regulation, service, and long-term care — with watchmakers including Eugene and Antonio carrying the craft forward.
