About American Time
American Time Mfg., Ltd., was founded in 1990. The purpose of this new venture was to create new skilled jobs and produce reliable, high quality Union Made wristwatches. Our company motto, “Supporting the American Workforce”, is really what American Time is all about.
Located in Rochester, New York, American Time began under very modest circumstances. Three people, organized by Machinists Local Lodge 1868, began designing, customizing, producing, and marketing custom dial watches to Internationals and their affiliates; satisfying the requirements for Union Made watches and creating new high paying jobs. American Time today enjoys the reputation for quality, service and innovation.
In our twenty-nine years, American Time and its subsidiaries have grown from 2,500 square feet to more than 21,000 square feet of warehouse, production, and office space. Our job growth is a direct result of the enormous support from Union buyers. American Time watches truly have become the watch of choice amongst the Brotherhood of Union members. Not resting on its laurels, the Company has developed the leadership, passion, and innovation for continued success in the future.
