Every watch has a story — this one is mine.

For over 40 years, my husband and I poured our hearts into crafting these timeless pieces. After his passing, I’ve kept the workshop going — not just to remember him, but because each watch still carries a part of who we were together.

But life has changed. The bills are mounting, and it’s time for me to let go.

So, I’m offering these handcrafted watches at 80% off, hoping they find a home — not just as a timepiece, but as a memory passed on.

Thank you for helping me turn the page, one watch at a time.

In Loving Memory of Vince

He named the shop after me — “Watches By Carla” — not because I asked him to, but because he said “everything I make is with you in mind.”

Vince poured his heart into every watch. Years have passed since he left, but I still wind these timepieces with the same love he once did — not to make money, but to keep his memory ticking.

If you find one you like, take it home.

You won’t just be wearing a watch — you’ll be carrying our story forward.

    "The craftsmanship is beautiful, but it’s the story that got me. I lost my wife two years ago, and reading Carla’s words felt like someone understood. I wear this watch every day — it helps me feel connected to something meaningful.”

  • Vince P.

    “I wasn’t even planning to buy a watch that day. But when I read Carla’s story, I knew I had to. It arrived perfectly wrapped, with a warmth you just don’t get anymore. This isn’t just a watch — it’s love preserved in time.”

    “I bought this watch for my father’s 70th birthday. When I told him the story behind it, he teared up and said it reminded him of the one his grandfather wore. It’s more than a gift — it’s a keepsake.”
