The Journal is a curated exploration of Chinese horology and its enduring legacy. Through historical research, in-depth features on vintage watches and significant models, collector stories, rare memorabilia, and observations from the Chinese vintage watch scene, we uncover the narratives that make these timepieces far more than instruments of time.

From the rise of pioneering watch factories and forgotten references to the craftsmanship behind iconic movements and the personal journeys of passionate collectors, this is a space dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich heritage of Chinese watchmaking. Part archive, part editorial, and part collector’s notebook, the Journal serves as a living record of craftsmanship, culture, and the enduring fascination of collecting.
