29 Mar Thümm and Co. – Beautiful, Handcrafted Watches Designed in the USA
Hello friends
Thümm and Co. is a wonderful watch company that designs handcrafted watches here in the USA.
I am sporting the Monroe, and have wanted a white watch with a white band for Spring and Summer, and this one is lovely!

Time…
“Does anybody really know what time it is?” ” Does anybody really care?” You know the lyrics from this Chicago song! I am sure many of us have felt like this over the past year or so, when the days blended together.
However, things are improving, and vaccinations are continuing, so let’s get back to dressing for the day and putting on that smart looking watch!
I have always been one to enjoy wearing a watch, a time piece that is classic and stylish.
And as Mick Jagger once sang, “Time is on our side. Yes, it is! ”
Thümm and Co.
I love the fact that the company is comprised of a father and son team, (both named Greg) who created a direct to consumer brand.
With over 30 years experience, Greg Sr. has experienced much of the various facets of the industry and adds to his resume- President of Bulova watch Co.. ( I also have a Bulova watch I was given as an Anniversary gift).
Father and Son. developed a global supply chain and create a watch brand predicated on affordability, durability, quality, transparency, and personalization that is sold exclusively online. That is also where affordability comes into play. The direct to consumer model offers a more affordable price for consumers, by selling this way and would be priced much higher if sold through wholesale distribution. These watches would be anywhere from $425 -525 with this method.
Earth Made trademark-
Watches are designed in the USA, and Earth Made is a registered service that provides transparency
There are 5 points as the mission to their business. –
- Affordability
- Durability
- Quality
- Transparency
- Personalization
To read more about these and the company,
With personalization, they offer free engraving on your watch, and I was gifted this service. If I have learned anything through Covid, it is even more important that we “Carpe Diem”, or Seize the Day. I had this phrase engraved on the back of my watch along with the year, “2021” and I am grateful for each day!

Check out the women’s line of watches! There are bright fun colors, neutrals and watches with the mother of pearl watch face.
What’s Goin on?
Happy Monday friends. This time last year felt like 6 months had gone by! Slow! I think the energy has changed where people are feeling more hopeful and have received at least one of their vaccines, or are on their way. My hubby and I get our second April 8th. We have enjoyed some nicer days at a brewery, and discovered this amazing Indian food truck. It is funny my Irish dad introduced me to Falafel! I used to be able to get the brand, Middle East and make it at home, but Target no longer sells it.
My sister has been vaccinated partially, and we met her and my niece out for lunch at a Tapas restaurant. Oh, the Tempranillo and the food were delicious! I just love being outside and wonder why people choose to sit inside when the sun is shining.
Added a blue in white neck scarf for some pattern matching. 🙂
This women’s watch, the Monroe , was what I chose, and I have always loved the clean look of a white watch with a white band, and the features, such as the mother of pearl watch face, caught my eye.
Have a look at their women’s watches and men’s watches They would make a great gift as well.

Posted at 18:40h, 31 MarchThat’s a beautiful watch Jess! White looks so fresh for spring and really compliments your blue and white outfit. My husband got his first jab last week but I’m having to wait. Hopefully it won’t be too much longer.
