McQuaide Watches - Amazing!

I was looking for a new watch but something that would stand out. I came across McQuaide watches, and very impressed. The website content and details are informative and totally accurate.
The watch arrived as promised, and I am very impressed. I love the unique design/markings from the Damascus steel casing. The whole watch is fantastic, the time piece, the casing, the dials, the travel case - infact everything.
I bought a Q1 Crimson watch, and I liked it so much, I also bought a Q1 Abyss.
Highly recommend this great brand.

Get involved with this brand.

Delighted with the watch it is a real peace of work. I also have the steel strap to go with it, very well built too.

I now have 10 watches across a number of world known brands and this is up there, on its way to world status.

I wish them all the very best.

I bought a watch at the Watchit event…

I bought a watch at the Watchit event on the 21st June 2025, and it is now my everyday wear. I have a collection built over 50 years of around 200 and this goes into my top 5. Value for money, it is probably the top 3 and specification as well, with the big difference being the others are 5k plus. Anyone sitting on the fence should stop and buy one now. British built excellence!

Amazing inaugural watch from McQuaide!

I received the Q1 watch today, and am so impressed with the build quality, the beauty and strength of the design, and the attention to detail. The accuracy of the movement is also top notch. Congratulations to Rob McQuaide and the team who made this happen as it is a triumphant first watch to deliver! I have dozens of other top microbrands watches and am very impressed with McQuaide!

Top notch service

The McQuaide brand has really impressed me throughout my experience with them. Communication was fast and transparent, and it was clear from the beginning that they take great pride in what they do.

It’s not often you come across a company that gets both the product and the service exactly right. This website and brand has really impressed me with their personable approach and great customer sevice. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Impeccable Service & Craftsmanship

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

From start to finish, McQuaide’s customer service was outstanding—quick responses, clear updates, and a genuine passion for their product. When my Q1 arrived, I was blown away by the attention to detail: the Damascus steel case is beautifully unique, robust and luxurious and the dial is finished to perfection with intricate detail.

It’s rare to find a brand that delivers both top-tier quality and personalised service. This watch feels like it was made just for me. Highly recommended!

The McQuaide Experience

First of all, I want to say how happy I am with the Q1 Damascus steel watch!
The quality is superb, and what you get for the money is incredibly impressive. The bezel has a very satisfying click and no backward movement whatsoever. The watch case is a work of art, I’ve already had people comment on it.

Secondly, I’d like to mention the excellent service I received when ordering from the website.
I had a few questions about the watch, and the customer service team responded quickly and answered everything clearly. The website is straightforward to use, with quick and easy payment options.

To conclude, I just want to say how pleased I am with the entire process.
A British built piece of art, with specs to rival some of the big brands. I would 100% recommend it.
