The Padron Watch Company started as a restoration shop for vintage watches, but it wasn’t long before founder Leo Padron set out to make his own. His first model, the Tessera, was the first watch to be manufactured in Minneapolis in nearly a century. Padron recently launched their newest watch model, the Hennepin, via Kickstarter, where they raised over $100,000 — four times the original goal. Padron is definitely one to watch!
