Our Story

    Built for the water. Made with purpose.

    Why I Started Offshore Co.

    After receiving a bonus, I wanted to buy myself a really nice watch. I loved the idea of owning something well made that I could keep for years, but I didn’t want to spend $10,000 to get it.

    That got me thinking: why not build the kind of watch I was looking for myself? Something well made, thoughtfully designed, and priced fairly.

    At the same time, I wanted the business to stand for something beyond the product. I’ve always valued time spent on and around the water, and I want the next generation to have the same opportunity. Offshore Co. became a way to bring those two ideas together: make watches I’d be proud to wear and use the business to help protect the water ecosystems that inspire them.

    More than a watch.

    Offshore Co. exists to make well-built watches at a fair price while helping preserve the water ecosystems that make the on-the-water lifestyle possible for the next generation.

    We’re not trying to be everything to everyone. We make watches for people who feel at home near the water, and we use the business to leave that water a little better than we found it.

    Two Ways to Wear Offshore

    Built from the same connection to water, each with a distinct point of view.

    Thoughtfully Built

    The goal is simple: give customers a great watch at a fair price. That means dependable automatic movements, sapphire crystal, practical water resistance, and materials chosen to suit each collection.

    Reefline is built for open water with a Seiko NH35 automatic movement, sapphire crystal, and 200m / 660ft water resistance. Cases are 316L stainless steel, with black 316L and solid bronze options depending on the model.

    Bayside carries the same attention to detail in a more refined everyday form: sapphire crystal, the same Seiko NH35 automatic movement, and 100m / 330ft water resistance for life between the city and the water.

    Protecting what inspires us.

    10% of every Reefline sale supports the Coral Reef Alliance and its work protecting coral reef ecosystems.

    This isn’t an afterthought. It’s a core reason Offshore Co. exists.

    A Watch You Can Wear With Purpose

    Every Offshore Co. watch is made to be worn—on the water, in the city, and everywhere in between. A well-made watch, a fair price, and a small way to help preserve the water lifestyle for the next generation.
