HALIOS

HALIOS was founded in 2009 by Jason Lim, a lifelong watch enthusiast driven by an all-consuming obsession with timepieces. The brand started on online dive watch forums where enthusiast communities provided frank discussion and feedback. Beginning with larger dive watches like the 47mm Puck, the brand evolved through models including the Tropik and Laguna before finding its signature with the Seaforth series. The Seaforth, which became the culmination of HALIOS' first decade, spawned multiple iterations including GMT versions, bronze-cased variants, and collaborations. In 2019, HALIOS debuted the Fairwind and Universa at WindUp San Francisco, marking a design evolution toward more angular cases and refined aesthetics as the brand entered its second decade.
