Paulin
A Glasgow design studio that now shares watchmaking capacity with anOrdain and publishes a more transparent production chain than many larger brands.
Verification note
Paulin’s production pages disclose in-house Glasgow assembly by a watchmaking team shared with anOrdain, with direct component sourcing and a small Vancouver exception.
The record
Founded by three sisters and now part of anOrdain, Paulin has moved its assembly in-house to the shared Glasgow watchmaking team.
The company works directly with component manufacturers and publishes separate production notes for dials, cases, hands, movements, straps and packaging.
A small number of watches are assembled in Vancouver by retail partner Roldorf & Co, so country of assembly should remain attached to the individual piece rather than assumed from the logo.
Editorial angle
A verified omission and one of the best examples of accessible, design-led Tier II production.
