Who Are Swan And Edgar?
George Swan and William Edgar formed Swan & Edgar in 1812 to celebrate British workmanship and provide unique, unsurpassed products to uplift the people. The Fields family continues this objective. Sir Reginald Blomfield, who later redesigned the West End, remodelled this historic business, which was the cornerstone of Piccadilly. Swan & Edgar survived two world wars and inspired the nation with its supportive messaging and industry-leading products. The business was revered by top athletes, servicemen, and royals. Today, each hand-assembled Swan & Edgar timepiece preserves this store’s past, giving collectors a piece of British history.
Their ideals and watchmaking ideas come from four generations of the Fields watchmaking family. Third-generation watchmaker Antoni Fields and fourth-generation watchmaker James Fields continue the family objective of making exceptional hand-assembled timepieces to celebrate and enhance life’s most significant moments. Each watch commemorates a unique moment in Swan & Edgar’s 150-year existence. Their clocks combine British heritage with cutting-edge designs, premium materials, and cutting-edge engineering. A Swan & Edgar watch begins with six months of study and design in their family-led London team. For decades, they have searched the world for the best raw materials, including hand-waxed leathers, high-grade stainless steels, and friction-less gems for their distinctive movements. Over 100 highly developed parts are deep-grain polished and hand-assembled to ensure precision and reliability in all movement problems. After assembly, your watch is meticulously examined with a magnifying glass and hand-polished and coated with the finest materials. After five days of quality inspection and testing, each timepiece is stamped with its serial number and their industry-leading 5-year warranty.
