Exciting news ! We have launched the new Strond Henge timepiece!


The whole dial for this timepiece is cut from the same stone used to make the inner circle of Stonehenge !


Each watch dial is made from the same stone used to make Stonehenge
From Preseli bluestone to a Strond watch

The new HENGE timepiece, with the whole dial cut from the same stone used to make the WORLD FAMOUS STONEHENGE ! 


The stones that form the inner ring came from the Preseli Mountains in Wales, and are protected by the “Welsh National Park Authority” 

Craig Rhos-y-felin is a rocky outcrop on the north side of the Preseli Mountains in Wales, which is designated as a RIGS (Regionally important geological and geomorphological site) site on the basis of its geological and geomorphological interest. It is accepted by many in the archaeological community that it is the site of a quarry, used together with one at Carn Goedog, for gathering stones used at Stonehenge.

The quarry is protected and only a very small amount the of the Preseli Bluestone is allowed to be used, and we are very fortunate to be one of only a small handful of small craft cottage industries to be allowed to use the stone for our STROND timepiece.

So then, it is fitting that we create a timepiece in order to tell the time as Stonehenge was used in part to tell the time for seasons and dates.

Here we see one of the carved rocks which lay buried for 1,000s of years.

Archaeologists are now certain that this is one of two sites used for making the inner circle at Stonehenge, and they did so by a kind of rock DNA chemical testing.


You can order your unique HENGE watch today....
