  Horologer MING was founded and funded by six enthusiasts from around the world under the leadership of Ming Thein, a photographer, designer, business strategist and above all, a lover of watches. Together, the MING team draws from extensive collecting experience ranging from vintage to avant-garde; from quality affordables to six-figure commissioned independent pieces.Our goal with MING has always been to make the watches we ourselves want, and to bring back that sense of excitement and discovery through deliberation and refinement in every detail while also delivering value beyond the price point. We neither pretend to have history nor are we burdened by it. We will be the first to admit that we don't build in-house but rather on the strengths of dedicated partners like Manufacture Schwarz-Etienne, Agenhor and Jean Rousseau. All our watches are assembled, regulated and tested in Switzerland, with final quality control completed personally by Team MING.MING is our way of sharing our experience with enthusiasts - budding aficionados and seasoned collectors alike - who want to discover watchmaking substance beyond brand. We are proud to have our efforts recognized at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève, with multiple finalists and the 17.06 Copper winning the 2019 Horological Revelation prize.In 2021 we also launched the Special Projects Cave, an invitation-only program to create small runs of experimental pieces that are concept-driven and unencumbered by regular production constraints or economics.2022 will mark the fifth anniversary of the brand, and our most exciting lineup to date – including reference #50!We're always happy to hear from fellow enthusiasts at hello@ming.watch, and you can follow our journey @mingwatches on Instagram.MING is a registered trademark in Switzerland and Malaysia and represented by Horologer MING SA, La Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland.

  … you must have one grand passion – at least! ´the eclecticum`, a watch and fine lifestyle blog solely driven by passion. A resource which first and foremost reflects our very personal views as (seasoned) collectors, connoisseurs and industry insiders. We have no pretension of being the most complete, fastest or most easily to digest media on all things eclectic. Honesty, best-to-our-knowledge information and (for some) enriching lecture – that´s what we have to offer. Be eclectic! Show less
