Unity in Design: A Chat with James from Canuck Timepieces!
In this episode we sit down with James from Canuck Timepieces, a young Canadian microbrand built on unity, creativity and national pride. We explore his journey from sneakers and skate culture to vintage Soviet watches, modding Seikos, and eventually creating his own custom builds that evolved into his own brand.

We talk about early inspirations, experimenting with mods, his first collaborations, the impact of creators like TheDanSome, and building unique dials with Surfite in partnership with Juxtaposed Watches.

James also shares insights from working in ecommerce, the importance of maintaining brand identity, QC, and plans for a 2026 release featuring the NH38 with an eventual move toward Miyota 9000 series movements.
