You don’t need a yacht to love the ocean.

You don’t even need an ocean. A lake counts. A river. A puddle…probably.

We design watches for the water-obsessed — the dreamers, the roamers, the salty-aired romantics — people who can’t look at a horizon without wondering what’s past it.

Vintage vibes. Modern reliability. No ridiculous luxury markup.

And because we actually care about the ocean — not just the aesthetic — we give 5% of profits to nonprofits that protect coastal waters and the families who work them.

Seaborne Trading Co.
Watches for people with saltwater souls.

A Note From the Founder

Seaborne started the day I realized I had two addictions: vintage tool watches and saltwater.

I grew up on the Massachusetts coast — docks, fog horns, everything smelling faintly like salt air, the smell of the marsh at low tide (if you know, you know) and diesel of the dock. Over the years, I collected old dive watches: bold colors, rugged builds, purpose before prestige. Eventually, I designed my own because I couldn’t find the kind of watch I loved — well-made, water-ready, and not priced like a mortgage payment.

So Seaborne was born: a small company with a big belief — you shouldn’t have to be rich to wear adventure on your wrist.
