222: More than a subtle combination of the 12 and 24 clocks; it's a showcase of an "angel's number" with the meaning of trusting the process, collaboration, and harmony.
Senza Fine ("Endless"): Symbolizing the connection between the boundless spirit that drives us and the automatic movement that powers each timepiece.
Homemade: Defining where parts become timepieces filled with unique flavors—while manifesting a bold manufacturing goal for the future.
THE FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION THAT INSPIRES HOMEMADE’S DESIGN
WORKS BY EDMUND DALO
THE PROCESS
The Dial: The soul of every Homemade timepiece. Laser-cut from solid metal and finished in-house. My enamel dials are the star of the show—because of the rigorous firing process, no two are ever identical.
The Build: I curate every component and, when applicable, collaborate with manufacturers on design and finishes. Each piece is hand-built and regulated to ±10 seconds per day in my Rhode Island studio.
The Promise: From conception to completion, I maintain complete control to ensure every timepiece is an expression I am proud to share and confidently back.
COLLABORATIONS & SOURCING

The finished dial design is sent to Alex at Mod4Thai, and we collaborate on any necessary adjustments. Alex proceeds to laser-cut/etch each dial from a solid brass piece in his home studio. When the blanks arrive on my workbench, I enamel, hand-polish, and finish each piece.

Parts and preassembled movements are sourced from reputable, trusted vendors based in the U.S., Asia, and Switzerland. Like many watches on the market today, each watch I create utilizes the global economy. Regardless of the source, every component that crosses my workbench, whether generic or OEM, must meet my exacting quality standards.

I'm a self-taught artist and watch builder. Although I am in the multi-year process of becoming a certified watchmaker, I am not yet certified, nor am I affiliated with a professional service center. I aim to create, connect, and share my passion—not to compete with any brand or mindset. Each watch is hand-built/assembled, featuring artisanal elements and may contain slight imperfections, or, as I see it, Homemade Flavor. Please conduct your due diligence before purchasing to ensure that my work meets your needs. Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions.
