Period Correct is a personal journal about traditional watchmaking.

The name comes from the idea of getting things right: the original materials, the correct proportions, the details that match how a watch was meant to be. Not nostalgia for its own sake, but respect for how things were done.

I write here when I want to go deeper on something: a construction method, a historical detail, a part that most people overlook. These are research notes, not reviews or buying guides.

I'm a software engineer working my way into watchmaking. I want to build watches by hand using traditional tools, guided by vintage design and heritage.
