    Sourcing Notes: Founded in 2023 by Rob McQuaide and incorporated as McQuaide Watches Limited (Companies House 16058752, registered in Tilehurst, Reading). The flagship C1 (Cosmopolitan) uses a 39mm Damascus steel cushion case with sapphire crystal and exhibition caseback. Movement is the Swiss Sellita SW200-1b automatic (26 jewels, 28,800 bph, 38-hour reserve). The earlier Q1 used a quartz movement. Watches are assembled and tested in the UK. Specific case and dial subcontractors are not publicly named.

    on $780–$1190.56 watch

    UK is in the 10% flat Section 301 forced-labor tier (effective July 24, 2026) — the surcharge stacks on top of the MFN duty rather than being netted against it. Relevant for Farer, Christopher Ward, anOrdain, and other UK-assembled brands.

    Tariffs are assessed based on where the watch is assembled, not where individual components originate. A watch with a Japanese movement assembled in the US incurs no import duty.
