A Watch Powered by Daylight, Inspired by Courage
Meet the JC01. Rather good at telling time, quite marvellous at reminding you why you bought it. This is a solar-powered watch that actually works, inspired by Jerrie Cobb, the pioneering aviator who refused to be grounded. No battery changes, no winding, no faffing about. Just daylight doing what daylight does best.
Why Choose Our Solar Watch
- Light-Powered Precision — The Seiko AS01 solar movement converts sunlight into reliable timekeeping. A four-month power reserve means it keeps ticking even when you have rather forgotten to leave it by the window.
- Built to Last — 38 millimetre case, mineral glass crystal, 5 ATM water resistance. Handcrafted in the UK with the sort of attention to detail that makes you wonder why all watches aren't made this way.
- Genuinely Comfortable — Genuine leather strap with quick-release spring bars and a folding clasp. It sits rather beautifully on your wrist without pretending to be something it is not.
- Nine Stunning Colours — Deep Blue Cream, Bumblebee, Candyfloss, Ocean Green, Silver Aqua Green, Cream Yellow, Racing Green, Vintage Tan, Sunburst. Pick the one that actually makes you smile when you look down.
- A Story Worth Wearing — Each watch honours a legacy of breaking barriers and reaching for what matters. The engraved caseback is a quiet nod to that heritage.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES
Everything's properly encrypted and secure - your details are safer than the Crown Jewels!

Any payment pickle? We're here to help sort things out! Contact us
We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
