It can be a difficult task to choose a name for a company. It's rather like choosing a name for an unborn baby. In both cases, the name must be selected before its owner is a fully developed entity.

Our little company tried a lot of names on for size. Some were too small or too big. Some of them just didn't seem right to us. They were a group of perfectly fine words strung together, but they didn't speak to us.

During our search for the right words, we started looking around for things that held meaning for us. We went through quite a few and then the answer became clear.

I have a collection of pocket watches which were left to me by my two grandfathers. They are amazing in that they are beautiful and purposeful. That is exactly what I am hoping this company can do - make beautiful products that serve a greater purpose. And that's how Pocket Watch Design Studio in Dover, New Hampshire came into being.

We'd love to hear what you think about our products. Your comments will help us shape our company and the products we produce.
