The HMRIW Story:

Meet Eddy – Founder, Homemade Rhode Island Watch

Hello, and thank you for your interest in my work. I am a Rhode Island Native, self-taught artist, and lifelong watch enthusiast who was inspired by a newly revealed story about my Aunt Antonia, who, just one day after immigrating from Italy, began her 40+ year career in manufacturing at the Bulova Watch Company in Providence, Rhode Island.

This story ignited a deep desire to own a timepiece built in my home state. Unfufilled by the search, Homemade Rhode Island Watch was born—a new venture that blends art, heritage, spirituality, and storytelling in unexpected ways.
