about us

MACHUS is a family-owned boutique in the thriving
West End of downtown Portland

Justin Machus opened his first store Local35 in 2003. He closed that chapter in 2011 and started a new journey with his self-titled store MACHUS.

Opened November 11th, 2011, MACHUS has a goal of creating a boutique with the most compelling designers in the contemporary fashion market.
We often forgo working with obvious larger labels to select upcoming, emerging designers. Personal connection is of the utmost importance and with smaller brands we have the opportunity to know the designers and hear their story. We believe in every brand we sell and feel that our designers are the most progressive minds in fashion.

Our Private Label offers some of the finest core items in the industry
and is constantly evolving in new fits, washes and categories.

If you have any questions about ordering, sizing, or general comments, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@machusonline.com

Description

Ultimate Collection Watches from TASCHEN.

Details
Hardcover, two vols. in slipcase, 11.1 x 14.2 in., 23.70 lb, 960 pages
From precious early minute repeaters by Louis Brandt & Frère and James Schulz to legendary and super-rare vintage chronographs by Patek Philippe, Rolex, and Vacheron Constantin to state-of-the-art contemporary pieces, this book is a glorious celebration of watchmaking conducted at truly virtuoso levels of timekeeping precision.

“Across the volumes unfolds a narrative in which mechanical watches appear as carriers of memory, artisanal care and cultural continuity… terms such as craftsmanship, ritual, passion and duration structure the tone and perspective, lending collecting a cultural charge that extends beyond mere ownership.”

HYPERMADE

“Spotlight[s] 100 of the most incredible timepieces ever made and provide[s] a comprehensive historical overview of haute horlogerie, from the very first pocket watches to the latest and greatest one-offs.”

Robb Report

“Rather than being a visual-only work, the book intersperses vintage advertisements, archival sketches, and close-up shots of the watches in question — often treating readers to an inside look at their cross-sections — with the kind of detailed history of horological innovations that would pique the curiosity of even the most well-versed aficionado.” -WWD

“Not simply a reference work, but a book that seeks to erect an impressive monument to the connection between art and craftsmanship.” -Chapter

“A monumental archive of the craft at its pinnacle, a record of where watchmaking has been and where it’s heading next.” -Esquire

“Ultimate Collector Watches isn’t just a reference book. It’s an aspirational artifact — the kind of piece that invites conversation, reflection, and quiet admiration. It appeals to both seasoned horologists and newcomers who simply appreciate design done right.” -Flawless Crowns

“Across 960 pages, each “grail” wristwatch is presented as both a masterpiece of craftsmanship and a chapter in the history of design.” -Black Bough

“Ultimate Collector Watches is an important and welcome tome for all those looking to learn more about collecting vintage watches! I had a hard time putting it down once I cracked the pages.” -Eric Wind, world leading expert on vintage watches and founder of Wind Vintage
