Vortic
Vortic Watch Company salvages and restores antique American pocket watches and turns them into
one-of-a-kind wristwatches. Each watch tells a story. The old saying “they don’t make them like they
used to,” is our motto. We quite literally preserve pieces of American history one watch at a
time.
Every Vortic watch starts with the heart of an original pocket watch. The dial, the hands, and the movement are painstakingly and meticulously restored by our team of watchmakers. Next, we select the case, crown, and leather design best fitting of that little historical engine. Finally, the metal components are machined from solid blocks of titanium, bronze, or steel in our Fort Collins, Colorado manufacturing facility.
Vortic Watch Company started by asking what we thought was a simple question: “Can you make a watch in America?” Fast forward ten years, and we’re still one of the only American watch manufacturers, and certainly one of the few that can proudly stamp “Made in USA” on the back of every wristwatch.
Our small but dedicated team of watchmakers pours into every piece, ensuring that each Vortic watch is a masterpiece in its own right. We only produce a few hundred watches annually, and although most of our pieces are unique, we also make a limited edition called the Military Edition that you just have to see.
