Who We Are

FARR + SWIT MISSION

At Farr and Swit, we strive to offer a truly elevated experience through our commitment to superior craftsmanship, exemplary customer support, and making a positive impact in our community.

 

HIGH QUALITY PRODUCT

We are dedicated to crafting timeless watches and stylish clothing that exemplify exceptional quality, craftsmanship, and enduring style.

 

We measure time not by the hands on our watch, but the moments we make. The true mark of a fine timepiece is one that lets you define and capture the time that matters most to you. Made with the highest quality materials and a meticulous eye for design, we utilize workhorse movements and hand build our watches in the USA.  

EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SUPPORT

We understand that our customers are at the heart of everything we do. Our commitment extends beyond providing superior products; we prioritize unparalleled customer support to ensure every interaction reflects our dedication to customer satisfaction. Farr and Swit is always available to assist, ensuring prompt and efficient support for any inquiries, concerns, or after-sales services. We believe in building long-lasting relationships based on trust, transparency, and exceptional customer care.

 

GIVING BACK

When we started our company it was important to integrate charitable donations right from the beginning.  We believe in making a difference by giving back to the communities we serve. Through partnerships with charitable organizations, we contribute to causes that align with our values.  Farr + Swit donates a portion of our sales, products, and time to local charities in the Chicago area.  Click here to learn about the organizations we support.


We are watch guys.

 

We love the way that a quality watch has a way of capturing and collecting the most memorable moments in our life. And for us, most of those moments coincide with our love of travel. Farr + Swit was formed out of our desire to create quality time pieces that can serve as memento of the many adventures of life – whether it’s pitching investors in the boardroom or enjoying a sunset and scotch on the beach.

Adam Farrand Hodge

"I have an old Timex worn by my grandpa, Nelson Farrand, and every time I look at it memories come rushing back.  The watch really only tells me the current time but somehow it goes way beyond that and reminds me of stories and experiences."

"In earlier life, while working for a retail jeweler, I fell in love with fine time pieces. Now, it is extremely satisfying to wear a stylish watch of extreme quality AND our own design!"

Zach Switalski

"One of my very first automatic watches was a Oris Williams F1. This watch stayed with me and was worn daily for approximately 10 years.  I was so proud of that watch...I loved when a "watch guy" noticed and knew what I was wearing.  That watch stayed with me through life ups and downs, job interviews, births of my children, and everything in between.  

 

I've recently passed this watch on to my nephew for him to begin his own journey with the watch as he graduates from college."
