Our story

A real mechanical watch shouldn't cost a fortune.

OCHSTIN starts from a simple idea: the automatic watches people really want often cost several hundred euros, and the affordable ones lack style or after-sales service.

We offer something different: watches with a visible movement that wind themselves as you move your wrist, carefully designed and sold directly, with no middlemen, for around €90.

What we choose, and why

Automatic, skeleton, chronograph, quartz. Our collection is deliberately small. Each model has its place: mechanical for those who love to see time ticking, quartz for those who want everyday simplicity.

We would rather offer fewer models, but models we would wear ourselves.

Our commitments
