Founded in 2023 in Manchester, England by pilot Sam Riley, Riley Watch Co hand-builds aviation-inspired watches in its Manchester workshop. Each model is named after a legendary aviator — the Rifleman Field pays tribute to vintage military timepieces, while the solar-powered Jerrie Cobb honours one of the first female astronaut trainees. The brand ships worldwide with US import tariffs prepaid, making it accessible without hidden fees.
