Braun Watches

---

Martin Braun is a master watchmaker who learned and honed his craft in Germany's classical jewelry and watchmaking city Pforzheim. Years of work with vintage timepieces have sharpened his skills and awakened a desire in him to recreate and improve upon classic designs in watchmaking.

Above all, however, he always dreamt of making a new and innovative complication to indicate the wearer's local time of sunrise and sunset. Ten years in the making, his dream became a reality in the year 2000 with the introduction of the EOS model.

Martin Braun officially became a watchmaker upon graduating from Pforzheim's famed School of Watchmaking in 1983 with honors. He then embarked upon an internship with a well-known watch company, following up on this by earning the title of master watchmaker in 1991 at the age of 27.

The modernistic table clock he built for his final examination illustrated well the promise that he has continued to display throughout his solo career. It contained an eight-day movement, a Republican calendar (a French calendar system in use from 1792 until 1806), the date, an accurately running moon phase display, and an equation of time that Braun developed himself.
