Why Serica Refuses to Put a Logo on This $2K Watch?... and Why It Works!

Описание: SERICA Watches: Toughening Up the Dress Watch | NYC Watch Week & WindUp 2025 Interview

By flipping the script on traditional watchmaking, Serica Watches is redefining what a modern mechanical watch can be tough enough for daily life, and elegant enough for any occasion. From the unique stadium-shaped case of the 6190 Parade to the high-spec 8315 GMT, this is French watch design at its most fearless.

At NYC Watch Week 2025 and WindUp Watch Fair New York, we sat down with Serica co-founders Jérôme and Gabriel to talk design philosophy, the idea of “toughening up the dress watch,” and why they insist on COSC-certified movements for their tool watches. If you’re searching for the best microbrand watches or independent luxury watches under $2,000, this deep dive into Serica’s no-logo design philosophy is a must-watch.

Whether you’re a new collector or a seasoned enthusiast, this interview explains why Serica watches feel alive on the wrist, and why great design doesn’t need a logo on the dial to stand out in a crowded market.
