Best gift I've given him in years

Got this for my husband's birthday. He's always been into DIY projects and watches, so this was perfect. The evening he spent assembling it, he was totally absorbed and loving it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

NOW isn’t just a watch — it’s a reminder.

Every piece is powered by a genuine Seiko mechanical movement and hand-assembled with care.

We combine precision engineering with a deeper intention: to help you stay present. It’s not about luxury for show — it’s about quality that means something.

Our founder Simon created NOW after moving from Munich to Bali and realizing how easy it is to miss the moment — even in paradise.

After a close friend had a heart attack, the idea became clear: life is fragile, and presence is everything.

NOW was born as a symbol to stay grounded and grateful.

All watches are hand-assembled in our workshop, using authentic Seiko movements sourced from Japan.

We carefully inspect every part — from the case and crystal to the dial and engraving — so that what you receive is solid, beautiful, and built to last.

Absolutely. You can add an engraving — a name, date, or short message — on the case back or buckle.

If you want a no-logo dial or something custom, just leave a note in checkout or message us via the chat.

We’re happy to help you create something meaningful.

Mechanical movements are powered by you — not batteries.

Inside every NOW watch is a precise system of gears and springs that winds itself as you move.

It’s an old-school kind of magic: no charging, no ticking quartz, just smooth, sweeping motion.

It’s craftsmanship you can feel — and a reminder that your time is alive, not automated.

Yes. We use genuine Seiko mechanical movements directly sourced from Japan.

No fakes, no shortcuts — just real, reliable craftsmanship inside every NOW watch.
