Kartel Studio
The Home of Modern
Scottish Watchmaking
Hand-painted, individually numbered timepieces — created in a studio you can stand inside.
View the CollectionWe don't manufacture thousands of identical watches. We create small collections through the year — each one designed, finished and painted by hand, in the studio itself.
Every watch tells a story — the light over the Old Course, the coastline, the changing seasons. No collection is ever repeated. Once an edition is complete, it belongs to the archive.
Watches not simply owned, but collected, remembered, and passed on.
Four original works
Each limited to eighteen hand-painted originals. Once an edition is complete, the work is retired — forever.

The 18th Fairway
£1,200 · Edition of 18Each dial is a miniature oil painting
Layer on layer of impasto, built with the same brushes and pigments a landscape painter would use — then shrunk to the width of a wrist. Look closely and the brushstrokes are real.
A window on Church Street
We paint in the window of our St Andrews studio, in full view of the town that made the game. Stop on the cobbles and you can watch a dial become a painting.
The most personal thing we make
A person, a place, a moment — painted by hand onto a dial, and worn for a lifetime.
