Betina Menescal is a born Brazilian, undergraduate architecture student at Westminster University in London and when the pandemic put the world in lockdown she put her creativity, focus and determination to teaching herself into the world of watchmaking. Given her personal interest in watches since she was 11, thanks to her father who is a longtime watch enthusiast and a collector, it is not surprising that Betina should have decided to create her own watch brand at age 21. She is heavily influenced by Mid-Century Modern, the Bauhaus and Dieter Rams; she is passionate about designing products that are simple, clean and beautiful.
