'They say that a watch doesn't just tell the time, it tells your story and no one was really telling our story here'
When we think of luxury watches, quite often our minds wander to the likes of Rolex or TAG Heuer, however, nestled away in an office close to Belfast City Hall, a new luxury brand is bringing a unique set of timepieces to the luxury market.
"I thought that it would be a great way to tell the story of Belfast and our rich shipbuilding history and a lot of our heritage and bring that through into a luxury watch that you can wear every day, no matter where you are going, if you are travelling you have got a watch which is built for adventure and that you always have that little piece of home which you can bring with you."
"Those guys really know how to make a precision instrument and so that is something that we have brought over and from there, it is building our own engineering around that."Local manufacturing is something that I am quite passionate about but we are not quite there yet and it is something that is going to take some time as we transition to fully building our watches here in Belfast.
Nomadic's signature watch - the Maraí 401 takes its name from the Irish word for 'mariner' and the 401 from Titanic's production number. Peter said that he wanted to bring that luxury quality and make it more accessible to everyday consumers."You can come to our boutique HQ here in the historic Scottish Provident building where you can try on our watches.
