Brand vibe
Founded by Rotimi Ogunjobi in Ottawa, SOVRYGN is a Black-owned independent that went and won the Black Designers of Canada Award of Excellence. The flagship Calendar collection is a busy full-complication play (day, date, month, AM/PM, and power reserve on a Miyota 9100) wrapped in steel or rose-gold-tone cases with milled clasps and exhibition case backs. The brand's pitch is "ordinary to iconic," and the watches slant toward a confident dial (wine, aqua, midnight) and the kind of finishing details (screwed bracelet links, micro-adjust clasp, BGW9 lume) that's usually reserved for pricier wares.
