RzR is changing the location of operation.

This year 2019 is crucial for the development of the company, and in this short article, I would like to talk about one of the most significant ones. We are moving! We are moving from the United Kingdom to the Canary Islands, Spain, more specifically to Tenerife. So, in a short period, we will start to operate from where we believe, is the best place of the world. This change is something that we knew from [...]

Tools for the manufacture and assembly of the RzR watches

It is curious, but one of the first steps of the manufacture of a product is usually the creation of the tools that you will need to manufacture it, especially when doing something that nobody has ever done. Many of you know that we have been prototyping and testing our watches for a long time and this is because all the parts except for the movement have been manufactured exclusively for our company. Even some of [...]

The manufacturing origin of the RzR watches

This time I would like to talk about the manufacturing origin of RzR watches, but before starting, it would be a good idea to contextualise why and the reasons for these choices. Since I started this project, the idea has always been to create an innovative product with an exceptional quality-price. A watch with an added value that anyone can buy. In this first model —RzR Tecorón— the innovation is based on the use of carbon [...]

Carbon fiber has to be treated like wood — Watch Industry

Wood and carbon fiber are anisotropic materials, that is the reason for its similarities. As I said in the first article —you can read it here—, what we often call carbon fiber is the composite material formed by a matrix (carbon fiber —the material that gives strength) and a binder (epoxy —the glue of those fibers). Please, keep this in mind because it is essential to understand what I want to explain in this article. In [...]

The basics of carbon fiber — Watch industry

— Carbon fiber is a complex topic. We can talk about it for hours and never stop. During the next weeks I'm going to create some posts about the sixth element of the periodic table but let's start at the beginning — Starting with the basics, we often call carbon fiber to the composite material that we see in watches and car parts, but we have to understand that the carbon fiber itself is only the raw [...]
