Born in the USA, Avoirdupois Debuts with the 100% American-Made Force Majeure Watch
Avoirdupois has launched its inaugural watch, the Avoirdupois Force Majeure, which is proudly made in Manhattan and designed to showcase American craftsmanship. The watch features a unique monobloc stainless steel case that measures 38mm in diameter and is just 6mm thick, ensuring a sleek profile. With an innovative integrated bracelet and a distinct wishbone deployant clasp, the design combines both aesthetic appeal and functionality. Available in two limited editions, the black dial version is priced at $12,950, while the gold dial version retails for $24,950. Each watch is designed to withstand water resistance up to 50 meters and integrates a micro-rotor movement that boasts a remarkable 60-hour power reserve. The Force Majeure watch is a testament to Avoirdupois’s commitment to quality and innovation, having been developed entirely in-house. The automatic movement, with its unique frequency and patented components, exemplifies the brand's dedication to creating a durable and reliable timepiece. With only 550 pieces of the black dial and 75 of the golden dial available, customers must secure their purchase with a deposit, with deliveries expected between July and December 2026. The watch is exclusively available for shipping within the United States, emphasizing its local roots and production ethos.
