A New Dawn for American Watchmaking
Since collaborating with us on the J.N. Shapiro Infinity Series P.01, Josh Shapiro has not only become a good friend, he’s continued to reach new heights in watchmaking. With Resurgence, Josh and his team have now created a fully American-made watch executed at the highest level.
Resurgence represents not only another leap for J.N. Shapiro, but likewise for watchmaking in America. It’s a line in the sand: A historically significant watch, signaling the return of in-house haute horology to the United States.

Dial
The J.N. Shapiro Resurgence features a multi-layered dial in customizable colors. It comprises separately engine-turned sectors that showcase multiple patterns, including barleycorn and Shapiro’s distinctive Infinity weave. Each layer is a different piece of metal, engine-turned separately, trimmed and painstakingly milled for a perfect fit.
The subdial is decorated with a miniaturized moiré pattern usually reserved for the complete dial. Every numeral is individually machined and black polished.
Case
The craftsmanship in this work of art is further exemplified by the traditionally engine-turned mid-case, historically seen only on the finest pocket watches. The barleycorn decoration completely encircles the 38mm case, with detachable lugs designed to screw in from the side to avoid disrupting the guilloché. (Note: Tantalum cases will not feature guilloché, due to the nature of the material.)
Movement
The J.N. Shapiro Resurgence is a micromechanical wonder that offers clients a choice of three free-sprung, hand-engraved movements with hacking seconds, beating at 18,000 BPH. There are also options for decoration styles beyond the damaskeening currently rendered.
Damaskeening is the American equivalent of Côtes de Genève, a finish previously popular on American pocket watches. The J.N. Shapiro watchmakers replicate this effect by using a spinning abrasive on their engine-turning machines (as per Côtes de Genève) to execute stunning wavy patterns.
J.N.Shapiro has also gone all out on the anglage (chamfering), especially emphasizing internal angles. The wheels in the movement are 14k rose gold, with rounded and polished spokes.
All components made in J.N. Shapiro’s Los Angeles workshop excluding jewels and springs.
