There is something very special about a mechanical watch, yet the heritage, the craftsmanship and the beauty is often lost behind the conflicting simplicity of a watch face.

Each watch in the Gentlemen's collection subtly showcases a stunning Japanese automatic movement behind an intricately detailed dial.


Designed in the UK and crafted with hand picked premium materials.

  • Miyota 82S5 automatic movement

    AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT

    An open-heart design allows the wearer a glimpse into the beating heart of the self-winding movement, producing the perfect combination of character and convenience.

  • Demonstrating the 10atm (100m) water resistance of the Pompeak Gentlemens Classic Black

    WATER RESISTANCE

    Up to 100m (10ATM) water resistance, achieved through meticulous design and precise manufacturing. A screw down crown ensures this watch is at home wherever you are.

  • Side by side shot lume shot of the Pompeak Gentlemens classic navy

    SUPER LUMINOVA

    Ensuring all day and all night usability with Swiss Super-LumiNova coatings. Our chosen BGW9 lume is transparent in daylight with a long lasting blue night glow.

  • Flat Sapphire crystal with the Pompeak Gentlemens collection 316L watch case

    SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL

    Any watch owners nightmare is a scratch across the glass. That's why we fit each and every timepiece with crystal famed for it's hardness and scratch resistant properties.

The £800 watch...

So, my girlfriend got me this stunning watch for my birthday in February of this year, and it's been on my wrist and a conversation starter ever since.

I love the sleek, simplistic design. It feels as light as a Rolex while being just as appealing as a MARLIN CHRONOGRAPH.

I did need to take it to the jeweler's as my clasp wore away, and in doing so, the jeweler was blown away by the price I paid for this watch. He expressed that he would have priced it easily at £800 to £900 if he were to sell it himself.

I did buy another strap that is identical, only without the brand name and fancy strap, but the watch still looks amazing, and I'm glad to be representing POMPEAK.

Best watches money can buy for first-time buyers.

Wow! Thank you Jake, I am glad the gift has been received well although I am sorry to hear you had a bracelet issue - Please get in touch if you need anything in the future. Happy wearing!

Excellent Gentleman's watch

Watch arrived and I have been wearing it daily for the past 3 weeks. The design is great, excellent with suits or smart casual and the movement keeps excellent time. Have received positive comments from colleagues. Dial is nicely laid out and clear. So happy that I have also bought the version in navy blue. Also great service by the team who are down-to-earth and pragmatic. Highly recommended.

Thank you for the kind words Jonathan!
Happy to help and glad to see you're enjoying your new watches.

Very classy watch

I wasn't sure if I would like the Pompeak watch that I chose to be a backer since I've only backed a few watches on Kickstarter. However, the watch exceeded all my expectations, looks great and keeps terrific time. It's ironic that I backed the watch before I had a serious auto accident that left me with a broken left wrist and broken right hand. So even though I love the Pompeak watch and I have a large collection of other watches that I like to wear on alternating days, I haven't been able to wear a watch for over a month unless you count wearing a watch on your belt loop. I usually don't wear my better watches on my belt loop since I want to make sure that I don't accidentally scratch the crystal. But as soon as my injuries have healed, the Pompeak watch will be one of the first that I wear. I know enough about watches now that I can recognize a watch that is well made and the Pompeak doesn't disappoint. Being able to acquire a watch of this quality at an early bird special helped boost my spirits as my recovery has had it's share of ups and downs. I do plan to reduce the size of my collection but the Pompeak is definitely a keeper for me.

Hi Eugene, thank you for such a sterling review and I wish you a speedy recover! Let's hope you can get you new watch on very soon!
All the best,
Dave

Fantastic value

I was a kickstarter backer with me and two of my friends getting this watch. We are in general very happy. This watch radiates quality, where every part feel genuine and thought through. The design is beautiful with great attention to detail. Especially at this price point it's a fantastic watch.
My only room for improvement, and I've talked to the team about it, is regarding anti reflective treatment of the glass. I realize they had to make a lot of choices to reach this price, but I would happily have paid a little more to get it. The watch face is great, but I in some lights I can't enjoy it fully due to lot of reflexes. The metal around is also quite reflective which might add to it.
My friends do not consider this an issue at all, it's a matter of taste and preference.
But in summary: Great watch, highly recommended.

Thanks for the review and for the feedback Erik.

Really pleased

Have to say I'm so very happy with my Gentlemen's Black & Leather watch. It's keeping quite accurate time and I'm wearing it. Loved the timely updates and when I received the watch with the great stainless steel bracelet, which I didn't order, I very promptly received the correct leather strap and tool in a matter of days with no additional charge. Nice work, gentlemen!

Thank you Richard, glad to hear you're enjoying your new watch!

Black Mock Croc

This was a bit of a hasty purchase from me as the pre-order sale was ending, but I needn't have worried. Watch is absolutely beautiful and I love the croc strap - Even better quality than some more expensive watches I have owned.

Glad to hear there's no regrets there Sean!
Thank you for the great review.

The Chosen One, part 2

Well, I can't believe I used all the 1500 space and still not enough for me.
I'd also like to thank the customer support crew that has been very helpful, even though I spammed them quite a few messages regarding the watch info and delivery issues, haha.
I'd like to thank, let's call him agent D since I can't mention his name and the company is from UK. Ooooh, this also reminds me of 007. Ok, I'm sidetracking. I'm here to thank them and the whole team because they have been very patience and kind towards their customer, me included.
All I wanna say is, the brand, the team behind it and the product itself is 10/10. You can feel the love they've poured into the watches. If my review still doesn't make you wanna get this Gentlemen's series watch, then you need to get a strawberry sundae and come back. That's when you'll change your mind and order it.
I've been looking for a watch that I could wear every day of my life and spend my time with it and I can proudly say,I've found it.
This, is the watch that I've been searching for.
This, is The Chosen One.

Wow Peter, that is what we call a review and a half!
Really glad you are loving your new watch!
Thank you for such kind words.

The Chosen One

Ok, to give you guys a little heads up. I backed this watch when it was on Kickstarter. I saw it on the cover page and it has my curiosity, but once I clicked the link and look through the details, it has caught my attention.
Do you know when a classy elegant woman walked past you and your feelings just go crazy, you can't stop looking at her and can't stop thinking about her non-stop all day all night? Yes, exactly. Now imagine that but a gentlemen. That's what seeing this watch and wearing it gives you, confidence with a little touch of class, you know what I'm sayin'?
This is the music that popped up in my head when I saw the watch.
Track name: "Turnabout Jazz Soul - The Fragrance of Dark Coffee"

And to let y'all enjoy even more, this has rainy mood in the background.

I still can't stop looking at the watch. It's still sitting right beside me on my desk, haha!
One small nitpick, the inner surface could be 5-10% brighter, you know, just to add a bit more flair cuz currently it looks a bit towards the flat dull side. But that's just me. Besides that, I really have nothing to complain. One of my favorite part is the strap metal lock( I don't even know if this is the correct term, hehe) itself that can adjust the length while looking modern yet classy, instead of going for the very traditional style. You guys will get what I mean once you get your watch.
I have no rooms left to wr...

Looks great in real life, excellent value for money

I was looking for this exact watch before it even came out. Great finish, quality seems good (first week of usage), very reasonable pricing.
Overall a very positive experience with the team at Pompeak and this watch.
The only advice is to provide the possibility of choosing a larger size of straps. I don't really like the look when the strap is 'just' large enough to fit.

Hi Seppe, thank you for the great review. Glad to hear you're so happy with your new watch!
Regarding the strap length; whilst we tried to make these suitable for the majority of wrist sizes, if the need was there we would absolutely look into producing slightly larger straps.
Thanks again,
Dave

Stunning accomplishment

Just received my Gentleman's Classic Black as a Kickstarter investor. Could not be happier. The watch is truly stunning. After removing three links the band fits perfectly, setting the time was a breeze, and after 24 hours the time is exact.
My wife is all smiles at the beauty of the design. The lume is as advertised, able to read well into the night. The face and bracelet are flawless - really love the 319L stainless shine and strength.
Well done, guys. So glad to be a backer.

Wow, thank you Michael. Could not ask for a better review!
(Always a bonus that your wife is happy with your purchase!)

Gentlemen's collection

Just received my black and navy faced watches. One is birthday present for my son who likes watches. I’ve no doubt he will love it. First impressions are very good well presented in a not O T T case and delivered when they said.
My first time to buy something from pompeak of who I put my trust in. These guys have honoured my trust by delivering what they promised. They also kept me informed of what was happening every step of the way answered emails in very prompt fashion.
Looking forward to enjoying my watch for many years to come D.V.
Wish you every success in the future. Wesley

Great to hear Wesley, I hope your son loves it just as much!
