The Watchmaker
By James Grahame
Dustin Cohen is a Brooklyn-based photographer and filmmaker. The Watchmaker is the second short film in his Made In Brooklyn series. It introduces us to David Sokosh, the proprietor of Brooklyn Watches.
Each of David's mechanical creations features a vintage Swiss Unitas pocket watch movement, painstakingly restored and paired with an appropriately tasteful case, dial and hands. The resulting timepieces are timeless, unique and average between $500 and $1000 -- a fair price for handcrafted beauty.
