A choice we can defend in person.
Raymond Weil is a Geneva house, family-owned and independent since 1976, and we carry it for that and for the unaffected quality of its mechanical work rather than anything else.
This Freelancer is built around the RW1212, the house's own self-winding calibre with Sellita, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 38-hour reserve. A diamond-polished balance wheel and skeletonised bridges open a view to its heart, set in a 42mm steel case with a silver dial. View it on a man who reads a watch from the inside out.
Hand-finished, made to be serviced.
The RW1212 carries 38 hours of power reserve.
Servicing is organised through us and the manufacture, and the watch comes back to your wrist — with a loaner in the meantime.
The watch, by the number.

A relationship, not a transaction.
Every watch we sell stays close to us. We organise servicing, source straps, and answer the telephone ourselves — for as long as the watch is yours, and the wrist after that.
When the time comes, we arrange the full service through Raymond Weil, handle the shipping both ways, and put a loaner on your wrist while you wait.
Replacement straps and bracelets at cost, in any material the manufacture offers, fitted in person at the bench.
You speak to Jason — for a warranty question, a service interval, or simply a second opinion — for as long as you own the watch.
When your watch is at service we will put another independent on your wrist, so the wrist is never empty.
Hold it once. Turn it over.
A watch makes more sense in the hand than on a screen — particularly through the sapphire back. Book a viewing at 900 West Hastings St., Vancouver and we will put a loupe in your hand.
