A Word From The Founder

"I didn't start Founders Republic to make watches. I started it because I've always believed that the American Republic is not something we simply remember — it's something we carry, preserve, and pass down to future generations through the stories that shaped it."

Jeffrey Mendelsohn Founder & Chief Executive
The Founding Series

The first three chapters.
One republic.

Each chapter is its own story — its own timepiece, its own companion medallion, its own moment in the American Republic. Each timepiece is strictly limited to 1,776 numbered pieces. Once carried forward, never repeated.

Begin with Chapter I
Chapter I · The Beginning

The Founding Fathers.

The Founding Fathers Chapter Set marks the beginning of the Founders Republic story — a tribute to the principles, sacrifices, and enduring ideals that gave rise to a nation unlike any before it.

At the center of the watch sits one of the most powerful phrases ever written into the American experiment: We The People. Not as a political statement. But as a reminder that the Republic was always intended to belong to its citizens.

Paired with the Founding Fathers medallion — Franklin, Washington, and Jefferson, framed by the thirteen stars of the original colonies. The complete set represents the origin point of the American Republic.

Available as the complete Chapter Set, or medallion reserved individually.

Chapter II · The Republic Endures

The Lincoln.

The Lincoln Chapter Set honors the man who held the Union together when it might have broken. The timepiece is cast in PVD gold and individually numbered through the Lincoln Edition of 1,776 — paired with its companion medallion.

At the center of the dial sits Lincoln himself, struck in sculpted relief. The banners read Liberty above and Republic below — a vow not for one era, but for every one that follows.

Paired with the Lincoln medallion — his portrait in high relief on the obverse, the inscription The Republic Endures on the reverse. The complete set is a quiet reminder of what it took to keep the Republic together. And what it asks of those who carry it forward.

Chapter III · Liberty and Strength

The American Eagle.

The American Eagle Chronograph carries forward the symbol that has watched over the Republic since its founding. Wings spread. Vigilant. Ready. The timepiece is cast in stainless steel, individually numbered through 1,776, paired with its companion medallion.

The dial bears the spread-wing eagle with seven stars above and olive branches and arrows in its talons. The banners read Liberty above and And Strength below — the seal of a young nation that meant peace but would not be unarmed.

Paired with the Eagle medallion — the same eagle struck in high relief on the obverse, the reverse bearing With Liberty and Justice for All. The complete set carries the spirit that has guarded the Republic for two and a half centuries.

The Founders Republic Experience

More than a timepiece.

Every Founders Republic watch arrives as part of a complete heirloom — presentation case, commemorative medallion, and certificate of authenticity.

The Presentation Case

An heirloom begins
with the case that holds it.

Hand-finished solid oak. Engraved with the Founders Republic logo monogram. The first object of legacy is the one that protects the others.

Selected for its density and the dignity of its grain, the Founders Republic Oak Case carries the watch, the companion medallion, the Certificate of Authenticity, the Founders Statement, and the Chapter Story Card — set into a fitted interior bed of brushed parchment-toned felt.

The case is the first object of legacy.
The Founders Medallion

A medallion struck
for the founding year.

The companion medallion accompanies every Heritage Edition timepiece — struck in solid bronze, finished in matte 14K gold, double-sided in high relief.

The obverse carries the figures of its chapter — the founders, Lincoln, or the American eagle — set against the year of the Republic's birth, 1776. The reverse bears the Founders Republic monogram. Weighty enough to remember it is there.

A struck object to mark the larger occasion.
Also Available — Standalone

The Medallions.

Each of the three companion medallions can also be carried on its own — struck in bronze, finished in matte 14K gold plating, museum-quality and meant to be passed down.

Mission Statement

Because the Republic does not carry itself.

I didn't start Founders Republic to make watches.

I started it because I've always believed that the American Republic is not something we simply remember — it's something we carry, preserve, and pass down to future generations through the stories that shaped it.

Over time, it felt like we lost that. Objects became disposable. Meaning became surface-level.

But it wasn't always that way. There was a time when what you owned, what you wore, meant something. Not to others. To you.

Founders Republic is my way of returning to that idea.

These are not just timepieces. They are objects of legacy — inspired by the principles that built this country. Created in limited number. Meant to endure.

Because the Republic does not carry itself.
It endures only if we carry it forward.
