This month wraps the 4th season of Analog Explorer Podcast as we sit down with R.T. Custer, CEO and founder of Vortic Watches dedicated to bring back American watchmaking at scale right in Colorado 🇺🇸

Vortic Watches, proudly based in Colorado, has carved out a unique niche by restoring and preserving vintage American timepieces while also promoting the future of modern American watchmaking and manufacturing. In this episode, R.T. takes us through the past decade and Vortic’s journey, from their early use of 3D printing to their legal fight defending artisanship and upcycling against the major Swiss conglomerate Swatch (Hamilton) in court. We also explore the exciting creation of the Colorado Watch Company in partnership with Fine Timepiece Solutions (FTS).
