Brew Metric

Brew Watch Co. is a widely celebrated, design-forward American independent microbrand based in New York City. Founded in 2015. The brand occupies a highly unique lifestyle niche, drawing its visual and thematic inspiration from industrial espresso machines, cafe culture, and the comforting ritual of a coffee break.

Brew avoids traditional military or diving tropes entirely, opting instead for a distinctly retro, 1970s-inspired aesthetic. Their watches are characterized by soft, rounded cushion-shaped cases, integrated bracelets, and vibrant, pop-art color palettes. A signature horological quirk found on their chronographs is a specialized high-contrast highlight scale spanning between the 25-to-35 second markers—the optimal extraction time for a perfect shot of espresso.

TWJ Favourite Watch

The Brew Metric Teal and Yellow dial looks simply stunning. However, my all-time favourite Brew watch is the retro video-game inspired Retro 8-Bit V2. A limited edition (that sold out before I could snag one!) was the perfect combination of Brews’ classic coffee-inspired stylings with a throwback retro gaming aesthetic. Maybe one day they will release another batch.
