I recently received my custom watch from Vincent at Instinctive, and I couldn't be happier with both the experience and the finished product.
From the initial discussions through to the final build, Vincent was responsive, professional and genuinely passionate about his craft. Communication was excellent throughout, and the watch arrived exactly when promised.
The attention to detail, quality of assembly and overall presentation exceeded my expectations. It's refreshing to deal with someone who takes such pride in creating something unique rather than simply selling another off-the-shelf watch.
I did mention one small observation regarding the dial sitting slightly further back from the crystal than I personally prefer. To be clear, this is simply a design characteristic and not a fault with the watch. Vincent welcomed the feedback with genuine appreciation, which says a great deal about his commitment to continually improving his products.
If you're looking for a bespoke timepiece and enjoy supporting a talented independent watchmaker, I would highly recommend Instinctive. I'll be proudly wearing mine throughout my upcoming European trip and look forward to seeing what Vincent creates in the future.
