Our reason for being
Watches start
the conversation.
The people make it worth staying.
A local society.
An open invitation.
Horological Society of Pittsburgh is taking shape as a free community for anyone who finds something interesting in watches: the design, the engineering, the history, or a memory carried on the wrist.
A five-dollar watch and a rare collectible belong at the same table. This is a place for shared curiosity, not collection comparisons.
Founded and organized by Kevin Caridad
Curiosity brings people together.
The society brings together watch enthusiasts across the Pittsburgh area to turn a shared interest into lasting social connections.
Every application receives an individual review. Hosted gatherings and thoughtful introductions help new members feel at home.
Membership is free.
Individual events may have a ticket price to cover their costs. You’ll see that price before registering.
Relationships come first.
Professional connections can develop naturally. Unsolicited sales pitches and member solicitation have no place here.
Privacy is personal.
No browsable member directory. Connect at gatherings or through an approved introduction.
The society journal
Curiosity, supported by evidence.
Our editorial work explores watchmaking, design, history and the people behind the craft. Kevin Caridad reviews articles before publication. Sources and review dates appear with each story, and photographs carry their credits and reuse licenses.
Manufacturer accounts are identified as such. Technical claims are tied to the model and evidence that support them. Brand names describe our interests and do not imply a partnership or endorsement.
