Chris Manning is an obligate maker, and has been developing metal working skills for the past 25 years. First as a fine jeweller, then making luxury fountain pens, and now as an independent watchmaker.

Chris combines the best of old world techniques with modern precision machines. Hand guilloché, niello, hard enamel, and lost wax casting are married with modern CNC machining, precision watchmakers’ lathes, and fibre laser engraving. All parts are hand finished to the highest levels.

Chris is a regular speaker at industry conferences world wide, and has been published in several peer reviewed journals.
