Who we are

About Me

I'm Cory Carson — the founder of Carson Co Watches and a lifelong enthusiast of everything mechanical.

For years, my world revolved around cars. I lived for the hum of a well-tuned engine and the joy of bringing machines back to life. But due to health reasons, I had to step away from that path. Still, that mechanical itch never left. One day, I stumbled upon a watch restoration video—and just like that, the gears started turning again. What began as curiosity quickly evolved into a deep passion for timepieces.

Carson Co Watches was born from that spark.

My mission is simple: to make great watches obtainable—whether vintage pieces that deserve a second chance or brand-new designs that reflect craftsmanship without breaking the bank. I specialize in finding watches that need a little love—scratched cases, tired dials, forgotten details—and giving them the care they need to shine again. Each restored piece has a story, and I’m proud to pass that along.

Beyond restoration, I’ve launched my own line of watches under the Carson Co name—built with high-quality components, rugged charm, and accessible pricing. They're timepieces made to be worn, not shelved.

There’s one more detail close to my heart: the brand itself is inspired by the wild crew my wife and I share my life with—eight dogs, each with their own personality. Every Carson Co Watches time piece is named after one of them, combining durability, character, and a little bit of mischief. Even my logo is a tribute to other animals I love (though my dogs keep it lively around here).

Whether you're looking for a well-loved vintage piece or your next everyday watch, welcome to Carson Co. I’m glad you found your way here.
