This watch was inspired by the five years I lived near Prescott, Arizona. Prescott is truly the comfort zone for my spirit and the memory of life as it is meant to be enjoyed. I found a place in the sun and a bed for my dreams in Prescott. As a tribute to this special place I have created my latest watch, the Prescott, to symbolize that life style.

My memories of the court house square and the ease of life on Whiskey Row are fulfilled in this new watch. I chose a pure white background for the dial, significant of the clean air and the emotional purity I experienced in Prescott. The clarity of the pure white dial contrasted by the precision of the black hands is a statement of the reality of the Prescott environment. Prescott does not crowd your thinking nor push you into a segmented world; Prescott allows you the freedom to believe in the non-provable and experience relationships without barriers. I chose using the Roman numerals as opposed to the Arabic style, because of the influential statue or that great empire. Prescott seemed to represent that Roman dignity in miniature.

The Sun of Arizona is inspiration for the heat treated case of the Prescott – called Sun-Blushed™.

The predictable mode of the Prescott is represented in the 26 jewel automatic movement I chose for this symbol of accuracy. The movement, the heart of the Prescott is adorned and embellished just like the cultural influence of the Prescott natives and the recognizable citizens of Yavapai County. The Prescott is unique to watch making, a limited production, 50 pieces, each watch serial numbered. It is not well known that d.freemont cares for each of his customers personally. All sales are direct from the manufacturer, dfreemont, to the end user, the customer… no middle men or dealers.

There is an additional significance in the name, Freemont… David Freemont McCready is the creator of d.freemont watches. David’s middle name comes from his maternal grandmother’s side of the family – his middle name was spelled with two “e’s” by mistake on the birth certificate – it should have been simply Fremont. Yes, he was named after the famous John C. Freemont. Prescott has a memorial to John C, just a few blocks west of Whiskey Row on Gurley Street, at the Sharlot Hall Museum campus.
