What is a Frankenwatch or a Frankenstein Watch? A brief discussion about the topic… Is a Frankenwatch a MONSTER — A real Frankenstein assembled with multiple parts from different donors? Sometimes. In certain situations… I believe a Frankenwatch can be a work of art. For example, I assembled this beautiful Waltham Maximus with a period correct case, dial, and hands …and I dare to say it’s more beautiful than the original. Vortic Watch Company takes old American pocket watches and converts them to modern wristwatches. They take broken movements and restore them into amazing, functional, and strikingly beautiful watches.  No monsters here.
However, there are watches that truly deserve the MONSTER label. For example, the Patek wristwatch shown may or may not have many Patek parts. Portions of the dial are definitely Patek… But the body of the watch, most of the dial, and maybe even the movement itself isn’t made by Patek.  If you don’t know what you’re buying you’ll definitely be scared — I guess that makes it a monster.
