Medium-sized Family Business
From starting at zero to becoming a hidden champion: Our family company stands for healthy growth without tricks – completely without external investors. More and more people are falling in love with our watches, which keeps driving our steady growth. Founded by Senior Managing Director Willi Birk, the company is now led by Junior Managing Director Nathalie Birk – a true generational change with vision and values. We remain independent – out of conviction.
By manufacturing in-house, we ensure quality and preserve valuable jobs. At the same time, we uphold tradition and industrial culture. Our brands tell the stories of German pioneers – authentic, powerful, and full of character. This is how we connect past and future and stand for values that endure.
For us, quality means full control through in-house manufacturing, experienced professionals passionate about precision, and a strong network of partners who share our high standards. Every connection, every component – everything at the highest level. Because true quality is created where experience, care, and responsibility come together.
Specialist stores are more than just sales partners for us – they are ambassadors of our brand. With stable prices and fair conditions, we build trust and reliability. This way, we not only strengthen brick-and-mortar retail but also contribute to preserving vibrant town centers as places where advice, craftsmanship, and personality have their place.

„So etwas kannte man bisher nur von hochwertigen Manufakturuhren á la Rolex GMT-Master II. Der Preis ist schon mal sehr gut. Aber wie steht es mit der Leistung?
