With a grandfather and great grandfather working as watchmakers, crafting watches was a natural step for Master Jeweller and Curtis Australia founder Glenn Curtis to take. Watches from Curtis Australia reflect the brand's jewellery heritage, with solid gold cases less engineered, but more fluid in shape - from a material perfectly understood that adds a distinctive character to the hand crafted watch. Enjoy browsing our watch collections as much as we have in bringing them to you.
The distinctive, softly curved octagonal shape of the Motima watch case needed an entirely fresh approach to create. The case body is carefully forged at over 1,080 degrees Celsius before being individually hand finished. It takes over 30 hours to hand lathe and fit the individual parts before we install the Swiss made, 25 jewel automatic movement - all from our own watchmaking studio.
Each Curtis Australia watch is made individually, there are no production lines in our studio and we never rush anything. Any extra time the watchmakers and jewellers at Curtis Australia spend refining and finishing is not a consideration when making your watch, the pursuit of excellence is our key objective.
Myst - a striking and stylish solid gold watch that can be created in a variety of options, from dial colour to gold colour to choice of bands.
Hand crafted one at a time in our own atelier, each Myst watch starts life in solid gold before being finished and hand set with diamonds. Even the case back screws are individually hand made from solid gold. This attention to detail continues with a precision Swiss movement completing a remarkable watch.
The Alpha watch is a fluid, sculptured solid gold design with a distinctive flair. Every part of this hand crafted watch is polished by hand to a beautiful finish, before being fitted with a Swiss movement for reliable and accurate performance.
Choose your solid gold colour, dial, and band to create your individually Australian made, handcrafted timepiece.
“TO GET SOME INKLING OF THE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND SKILL THAT GO INTO A CURTIS AUSTRALIA WATCH, CRAFTED IN VICTORIA BY WORLD-RENOWNED JEWELLER GLENN CURTIS, JUST TURN ONE OVER... THE SCREWS THAT SECURE THE CASE-BACK ARE A WORK OF ART IN THEIR OWN RIGHT.” STEVE COLQUHOUN, ROBB REPORT
