Simon Freese is widely regarded as one of the UK’s most respected and experienced horologists.

Over the last 25 years, Simon has trained and worked with some of the world’s most illustrious watch manufacturers, such as Girard-Perregaux, Omega, Breitling and Cartier 

In 2016, Simon was included in the Watch Pro Hot 100 list and established his own workshop shortly after. He has since gained international acclaim for being an expert in the servicing and restoration of vintage watches, most notably early Omega Speedmaster models.

It is from his longtime passion for horology that Simon established Freese Watches in 2018. Since then, Simon has designed and sold several small batches of his own watches, demand for which has often outstripped supply.

Simon is a passionate supporter of the resurging British Watchmaking Industry and is a trade member of The Alliance of British Watch and Clockmakers.
