Gyavius Watch Company is a boutique, family-owned watch manufacturer based in Sofia, Bulgaria, that specializes in creating distinct, handcrafted timepieces. Founded in 2012 by industrial designer T. Gyavurov, the brand was born from his lifelong passion for watchmaking—a discipline he views as a timeless composition of craftsmanship, science, engineering, and art.
The company's core philosophy centers on in-house design, development, and manufacturing. Gyavius aims to produce the majority of its components, including cases, dials, hands, and straps, within its own atelier. This hands-on approach extends to hunting for and rebuilding old machinery while also exploring modern technologies. Every watch is handcrafted, hand-finished, and individually assembled by hand, resulting in a very limited production of only a few timepieces each month.
Gyavius offers several distinct collections, each with a unique character. The "NAVI" line features a retro-futuristic design with a robust 1000-meter water resistance and a Swiss automatic movement, available in 41mm and 45mm cases. A variation, the "NAVIs," offers a similar aesthetic in 41mm but with traditional spring bars. The "VINTJ" collection presents an elegant 39mm cushion case with distinctive teardrop lugs and a "Big Small seconds" display. The brand has also produced the "DEEP," a model crafted from bronze.
