The Runwell Watch 41mm, Cream

An American-made timepiece with American-made style. This beauty from Shinola uses a unique argonite quartz movement, which uses nearly four dozen Swiss-made parts and is assembled by highly trained local craftsmen in the brand’s Detroit workshop. The dial features bold Super-LumiNova printed numbers and a remote secondhand sweep. And the laser-etched case is built from solid stainless steel with a secure screw-down crown. It’s all set onto a rich, domestically-manufactured, natural leather strap, which will become even softer and more supple the more you wear it.

The cream-colored dial on this version has an easygoing appeal, and is set onto a nut brown leather strap with lighter colored stitching that offers just a little bit of contrast.

Shinola is bringing back American production in one of the nation’s most iconic manufacturing cities: Detroit. The brand makes bikes, watches, and accessories by hand, with an emphasis on all things local. And they do it all in a historic downtown manufacturing plant, bringing a little bit of old-fashioned roll-up-your-sleeves manufacturing to a storied American city.
