About us
Handcrafted Timepieces. Built with Passion.
At Tranos, we believe a watch is more than a way to tell time—it is an expression of individuality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
Every Tranos timepiece is carefully assembled by hand, one watch at a time. Rather than mass-producing thousands of identical pieces, we focus on creating mechanical watches that combine timeless design, reliable engineering, and meticulous craftsmanship.
Our goal is simple: to deliver beautifully crafted automatic watches that enthusiasts can wear with confidence every day.
Our Philosophy
We appreciate the beauty of classic watchmaking while embracing the creativity of modern customization.
Every component is thoughtfully selected for its quality, durability, and aesthetic appeal. From the dial and hands to the case, bracelet, and movement, each element is chosen to create a balanced, refined timepiece that feels both distinctive and dependable.
Instead of following trends, we focus on timeless designs that remain elegant for years to come.
Built by Hand
Each Tranos watch is individually assembled by experienced watchmakers using carefully selected premium components.
Before leaving our workshop, every watch undergoes a series of quality inspections, including:
- Movement installation and regulation
- Hand and dial alignment
- Functional testing
- Timekeeping verification
- Water-resistance inspection (where applicable)
- Final cosmetic inspection
This hands-on approach allows us to maintain consistent quality while ensuring every watch meets our standards before reaching your wrist.
Reliable Automatic Movements
Mechanical reliability is one of our highest priorities.
Many Tranos models are powered by trusted NH-series automatic movements manufactured by Time Module Inc. (TMI), a company within the Seiko Group known for producing dependable mechanical movements used by independent watchmakers around the world.
These movements are valued for their durability, serviceability, and proven long-term performance, making them an excellent foundation for handcrafted mechanical watches.
Designed for Watch Enthusiasts
Our watches are created for people who appreciate thoughtful design, mechanical engineering, and the artistry of hand assembly.
Every model represents countless small decisions—from component selection and finishing to assembly and final inspection—resulting in a timepiece that reflects our commitment to quality rather than mass production.
Transparency
We believe transparency is just as important as craftsmanship.
Tranos is an independent watch workshop specializing in handcrafted custom mechanical watches.
Our watches are individually assembled using premium aftermarket components together with reliable automatic movements, including selected NH-series movements manufactured by Time Module Inc. (TMI).
Although some models utilize movements originating from the Seiko ecosystem, Tranos is not affiliated with, authorized by, sponsored by, or endorsed by Seiko Watch Corporation.
Accordingly, our watches should not be considered official Seiko products.
All warranties, customer support, and after-sales services are provided exclusively by Tranos.
Our Commitment
When you choose Tranos, you are choosing a handcrafted mechanical watch built with care, precision, and honesty.
We are committed to offering exceptional craftsmanship, transparent communication, and dedicated customer support—because lasting trust is built not only through the watches we create, but also through the way we stand behind them.
Thank you for being part of the Tranos journey.
