Fort Collins, Colorado company that converts restored antique American pocket-watch movements into wristwatches, combining them with metal 3D-printed cases; it also converts customers' own pocket watches and makes special editions (e.g. for Red Rocks Amphitheatre). Co-founded by R.T. Custer and Tyler Wolfe, who started in Pennsylvania before moving to Colorado; neither the about page nor Worn & Wound gives a founding year. Sold direct through its Shopify store. In 2023 it launched a second brand, the Colorado Watch Company (new watches, first sold on Kickstarter).
