Honoured to Be Included: Isotope Watches and Teddy Baldassarre’s Top Microbrand List

We’re delighted to share that Isotope Watches has been featured in Teddy Baldassarre’s recent article, “The 76 Best Microbrand Watches in 2025”, on his site.

Why This Matters

Teddy Baldassarre is a respected voice in the watch community. His reviews, commentary and curated lists are followed by collectors and enthusiasts around the globe. His deep-dive analysis and accessible presentation of what makes a great watch (whether design, movement, value or brand story) make him a go-to resource for anyone interested in microbrands and independent watchmaking. Being included in his list is not simply a nice honour, it’s recognition from a trusted source that understands and champions the very things that define what we strive for at Isotope.

What It Means for Us at Isotope

To be amongst the select group of microbrand watches mentioned by Teddy is something we are exceptionally proud of. It validates the work that our founder José Miranda, our team, and all of you; clients, supporters, and friends, have invested in building the Isotope story. It reminds us that the careful design, thoughtful specifications, and the emotional connection to our watches are being seen and appreciated.

We believe strongly in what a microbrand can be: nimble, distinct, and driven by passion rather than mass-market convention. In his article, Teddy touches on exactly this ethos: “microbrands … the fastest-growing segment … small shops can produce quality products that compete for connoisseurs’ attention”. Being recognised in that context reinforces our commitment to continuing to push boundaries, deliver quality and stay sincere.

Thank You & What’s Next

We are enormously grateful to Teddy for the mention, and to you, our community, for your belief in Isotope’s direction. Your feedback, your energy, your endorsement are what keep this journey exciting. We promise that being included on this list is not a finishing line; it’s fuel. Fuel for more design exploration, more bold ideas, more connection with you.

Stay tuned as we continue to evolve, refine and launch with intention. With your support, we look forward to continuing to write the next chapter of the Isotope story, and excitingly, to be in even stronger company in future lists of trusted voices like Teddy’s.

Warm regards,
Marc Levesque
