Your Big Day is Coming Soon!
A Decade in the Making | Pre-Orders Open November 10th | Limited to 50 pieces
The Pre-Order Page is on a separate page that goes live on November 10th.
The A5 Legacy X is the brand's 10 year anniversary watch. It features a big day window, and updated indicies! While I intend to produce a blue dial and a Snowflake dial, two of my most popular dials to date, a third color is in the works! Sign up above to stay up to date on the upcoming watch!
Assembled in the USA
Assembled in Chicago, IL by the brand owner, Alexander James, who has been building watches for over a decade!
Japanese Precision Movement
The A5 LegacyX is powered by the reliable, TMI NH36, a workhorse movement that is further regulated by Alexander James to -10/+20 s/day
Refined Sleek Case
While the TMI NH series of movements isn't known for its thinness, the metal portion of this case is just 10.4mm thick and utilizes a top hat style crystal to accommodate the thickness.
Superior Bracelet Finishing
With an emphasis on small details, the bracelet features various facets and finishes. I've owned some high quality watches and just had to implement the stunning bracelet finish that I've experienced before. When light strikes the steel, it creates a stunning show!
Let customers speak for us
from 23 reviews
The watch outperformed my $750 Movado quartz in my collection. This is an amazingly priced watch that has a nice classic design and feel. You can’t go wrong with it, and you really might only lose a few seconds a year. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a watch they won’t have to re-set the time every few months, after a year of usage, this watch hasn’t lost a single minute.
This is my first purple watch, and I waited for the right one. The color of these watches (both blue and purple) is even better in the metal: you have to see them in person!
Amazing one of the best watches I collected
Wonderful quality and beautiful product. Highly recommend
The green mother of pearl dial is stunning in the light and the smooth high beat movement adds to the nice visuals of this watch. Well done AJ.
Beautiful aventurine dial and great value. Solid bracelet with excellent on-the-fly microadjust clasp. Well packaged and quick processing and shipping. Thanks!
Beautiful watch and style. Very happy with the purchase!
Nice watches at fair prices. Fast friendly service.
A beautiful watch at an exceptional price.
Wears well. Good execution. I'm enjoying it a lot and would buy it again.
Premium quality with fantastic customer service. Chicago is lucky to have this brand !
Excellent watch, amazing value! Couldn’t be happier with this gem of a watch.
I’ve been wearing this watch for 2 weeks straight since I bought it. Dial is very nice to look at, realistic and only occasionally makes you want to order pizza.
Nice looking watch. Gave it to wife who wears several watches for different occasions. She wears this more than the others. Keeps time within a few seconds per day. I think it provides great value for the price. Looking forward to the quartz version.
This is a very well designed, well produced watch! Solid quartz movement - keeping dead -on accurate time so far. Also, I have received several compliments on the watch. Customer service was excellent and I highly recommend Alexander James!
Transparent Pricing
There will be exclusive pre-order pricing for these watches, which I'm currently estimating at $400. After the pre-order window, if pieces are still available, the price will increase to $475. I am aiming to be as transparent as possible when it comes to pricing, so the graphic below details the A5 Legacy X costs as they stand today.

Pre-Order Structure
This release will be a Kickstarter-style Pre-Order* with a funding goal of $15,000, and if that funding goal isn't met, I won't be moving forward with the project at this time. Judging from the responses I've received on the Legacy X over the past few months, I'm hoping that won't be a problem!
There are some technical limitations to pre-orders, but since most of these campaigns either get successfully funded or not within the first couple days anyways, the pre-order period will be open for just 7 days on my website running from November 10th at 10AM Central through November 17th at 11:59PM Central. Once this time period is up, pre-orders will still be available if there are any pieces left, but the prices will increase.
*For those of you unfamiliar with how Kickstarter Style Pre-Orders work, placing a pre-order will pre-authorize your payment for the watches you choose. Then, if the goal is met, it will be charged and production will begin and I will keep everyone updated every step of the way. If the goal is not met, your card authorization will expire and the pending charge will disappear.
