Who we are

At Donnelly Horology, every watch starts with curiosity. I’m a hobbyist and medical student who loves tinkering — someone who finds just as much joy in sanding a brass dial or adjusting a movement as I do studying physiology. This brand is the natural extension of that mindset: an outlet for experimentation, design, and mechanical creativity.

I don't come from a watchmaking tradition. I build because I love the process — the problem-solving, the imperfections, the tactile joy of bringing a custom timepiece to life. Each watch is crafted or assembled by hand, often from etched or resin-filled brass dials I've made myself, paired with thoughtfully chosen cases, hands, and movements to match the wearer’s style and goals.

Whether you're commissioning a one-of-a-kind build or picking up an assembled piece, Donnelly Horology is about watches with soul — personal, customized, and made with intent.
