In 2008, Sprout’s parent company utilized their 50 years of experience in watch making and set out to do something that hadn’t been done before. Their goal was to design the most eco-responsible watch possible while still offering styles that were fashionable, affordable and built to last.

The collection was immediately met with acclamation and today Sprout has evolved into over 80 different styles for men, women and children that are stylish, water-resistant and affordable.
