Goldpfeil is a renowned leather manufacturer based in Germany with strong brand name recognition in all of Europe & Asia. In the year 2000 Goldpfeil approached seven independent watchmakers - each a member of the esteemed AHCI & each bearing the title of Master Watchmaker - with the goal of incorporating the Goldpfeil brand with distinctive & unique watches.
Initially each watchmaker was commissioned to build 1 unique watch each, which would introduce the Goldpfeil brand into the watch-world. These 7 very unique watches were to be sold at auction to the highest bidder. The next step came in late 2001 which was for each watchmaker to develop a watch & to incorporate into their personal taste & design the Goldpfeil brand logo & the Goldpfeil spirit - resulting in the watches listed above.
Each of these watches has been manufacturer by the respective watchmaker in small quantities. As you will see each watch has distinct character & great detail.
The Goldpfeil brand is virtually unknown in the USA, even less known is its affiliation to the watch-world. However these seven watchmakers are famous amongst the watch circuit. Many watch aficionados have had personal experience or know someone who has had first hand dealings with these men. Their skills have been broadcasted by many - just visit any of the watch chat-room & you’ll come across mention of these men.
