Nicolas Lehotzky, Founder

Founded in 2015, Waldhoff was established through a collaboration between a Swiss watch designer with experience at prestigious Swiss luxury brands and Manfred Starck Uhren GmbH, a watch manufacturer based in Pforzheim, Germany. Combining Swiss design expertise with the experience of a seasoned German watch entrepreneur, the brand was created with a clear vision: to offer premium mechanical timepieces that deliver exceptional design and craftsmanship at an accessible price point.

Waldhoff places a strong emphasis on aesthetics, engineering and meticulous attention to detail. Each watch is designed to stand alongside far more expensive timepieces, demonstrating that affordability need not come at the expense of quality or thoughtful execution. The brand's philosophy centres on creating distinctive mechanical watches that offer both visual impact and enduring value.

Remaining intentionally boutique in scale, Waldhoff maintains a hands-on approach to quality control and customer experience. This commitment allows the brand to focus on producing carefully crafted timepieces while fostering lasting relationships with collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
