The first watchmakers emigrate from England to the American colonies over 300 years ago, marking the true beginning of the American watch industry—well before the idea of mass production enters the minds of the Pitkin brothers and A. L. Dennison. This presentation focuses on 18th-century American watchmakers, their timepieces, and the environment in which they work.
