📦 Shipping

 

Each HalfShell is built by hand in my Southeast Portland studio. If you have an urgent timeline situation and didn't choose the rush option at checkout, please e-mail us asap.

Note that we are working to build up stock, so it is possible a watch ships more quickly than that.

Here's a video of me building a SubMeloner at 30-40x speed:

🕰️ Mechanical vs. Quartz
  • Mechanical: Manually wound, powered by a spring
  • Automatic: Self-winding as you wear it
  • Quartz: Battery-powered, precise ticking

Mechanical watches carry history, craft, and rhythm—tangible time you can feel.

🛡️ Warranty Info
  • Covered (2 years): Movement, hands, dial, and build defects
  • Not covered: Scratches, accidental damage, water mishandling, or unauthorized repair

If anything feels off, we’ll make it right. Guaranteed.

    Watch is built right and looks even better! Just ordered my second Mr Eatwell watch 5 days after getting this one.

    Beautiful

    Everything about this watch is impressive. Friends who have seen it were amazed. This is my second and as perfect as the first. Even the bracelets are high quality.

    Blue Water Runs Deep

    The blue dial in the photo caught my attention but the blue in person is amazing. With the wavy pattern of the dial it reminds me of the ocean coming in and going out smoothing footprints in the sand. The additional blue rubber strap is perfect for the summer. A terrific watch at a great price.

    Nice watch!

    I have the 36mm with a jubilee bracelet. It fits really well on my small wrist. I love it!

    Spectacular

    This timepiece strikes the perfect balance between classic elegance and modern functionality. The case diameter fits beautifully on the wrist, offering a commanding presence without feeling bulky. Mechanically, this watch is outstanding. It keeps incredibly accurate time, losing or gaining virtually no seconds over a week of continuous testing. The dial is exceptionally clean and easy to read at a glance. The luminous hands provide excellent visibility in low-light conditions, which is a massive plus for evening wear. You get premium craftsmanship and reliable performance at a very reasonable price point. If you are looking for a dependable, stylish everyday companion that punches far above its weight class, this watch is an absolute home run.

    Ruined for Life

    I've followed Matt for a few years on Instagram. As a watch appreciator, I liked his designs and their individuality, instead of trying to look like something else. I had an old automatic that was failing me and my wife knew, so she picked out the Half-Shell Continual for me and I couldn't be happier. I haven't had to adjust the time since I have set it, I've gotten loads of compliments and it goes with whatever I wear. I'm in sales so I'm dressed up every day but even in casual wear it gives a nice spin to a tee shirt look. I'm a customer for as long as Matt keeps making watches. Can't wait for my next one I'll probably make it a custom one
