Bonafide watch doctor and half of the founding husband and wife team behind multi-award-winning Struthers Watchmaking studio, in 2017, Rebecca Struthers became the first watchmaker in British history to earn a PhD in horology.

Hailing from Perry Barr, Birmingham, Rebecca was just 17 when she set out on her path to becoming one of Britain’s leading antiquarian horologists. Initially training as a jeweller and silversmith in Hockley back in 2003, Rebecca’s passion for creating complex pieces of articulated jewellery led her to discover the art of traditional watchmaking.
