The L. Kendall watch brand comes with some serious historic roots in the name. Larcum Kendall was a British watchmaker who lived from 1719 until 1790. Among other things, he is well-known among horological historians for producing the marine chronometer that Captain James Cook used when exploring the Americas.

L. Kendall offers a view of the nicely decorated mechanical movement and uses their own custom navigational instrument-style 925 silver automatic rotor (another rare treatment). There is a “north star logo” image further applied on the crystal. Perhaps more interesting is the fact that the entire back of the watch is produced from a piece of sapphire crystal. More than just a window, L. Kendall made the interesting choice to put a sapphire crystal not only over the dial, but as the entire rear of the watch as well
