Classic Repeater

Experience the elegance of traditional horology on your wrist.

Repeater brings one of watchmaking's most revered complications to Apple Watch and iPhone: the minute repeater. With a simple tap, hear the current time announced through authentic chimes recorded from early 1900s pocket watches and classic mechanical timepieces, or fun sound packs like a kid's bike bell.

THE MINUTE REPEATER
Before electric lights made reading watch faces easy, minute repeaters solved a practical problem: telling time in the dark. By pressing a slide on the case, the watch would chime the hours, quarter-hours, and minutes through precisely tuned gongs.

Repeater honors this tradition with a decimal system optimized for modern timekeeping:

Hours chime with a distinct low tone
Tens of minutes sound as melodic ding-dong pairs
Individual minutes ring with a higher chime

For example, 3:25 plays as: three low chimes (hours), two ding-dong pairs (twenty minutes), then five high chimes (five minutes).

AUTHENTIC AUDIO
Unlike synthetic sounds, Repeater uses professionally recorded audio from real mechanical timepieces. Each strike captures the warmth, resonance, and character of genuine watch complications — delicate pocket watch bells to robust wristwatch gongs, to a fun kid's bike bell.

Multiple sound packs available:

Pocket Watch Repeater (included) — Early 1900s pocket watch with warm, intimate tones
Bicycle Bell (included) — Playful thumb bells for a cheerful experience
Tower Bells (included) — Classic church bell tower sound, loud and expressive
Wood blocks (included) — Dry hardwood temple blocks, subtle and warm
Classic Repeater (premium) — Two options, recorded from a traditional wrist watch with refined chimes

WATCH-FIRST DESIGN
Repeater is built primarily for Apple Watch, putting the complication where it belongs: on your wrist.
Tap the complication on any watch face to hear the current time. No need to look at the screen — perfect for dark rooms, meetings, or simply appreciating time in a different way.

Choose your experience:

Sound mode: Elegant audio chimes through your watch speaker
Haptics mode: Discrete vibrations for silent time-telling
Adjustable volume levels and haptic intensities

Configure reminders to appear:

Every 15 minutes, 30 minutes or hourly
Only during your active hours (e.g., 8 AM - 10 PM)
On your watch, iPhone, or both

When a reminder appears, tap "Play" to hear the time through the minute repeater. It's an opportunity to pause, orient yourself in the day, and appreciate the passage of time.
