Logan Kuan Rao has been passionate about antique pocket watches and wristwatches since his student days. Unsatisfied with merely purchasing timepieces, he began teaching himself watchmaking while studying Materials Science and Engineering at Imperial College London. He later pursued Product Design at the Royal College of Art.
Now based in Guangzhou, he operates his own independent watchmaking studio—a one-person workshop where he single-handedly oversees the entire process, from design and prototyping to manufacturing, quality control, finishing, and assembly. His approach to watchmaking diverges from industry conventions, embracing a unique and unconventional methodology.
