ABOUT CARA BARRETT

I have spent the last decade as a leader in the watch industry. After three years as a Watch Specialist at Sotheby’s, I joined HODINKEE as one of the founding employees. During my six years at HODINKEE, I became the defining female voice in watches. I was featured in the New York Times Style Section for my impact as well as the Coveteur and Town and Country. The story I am most proud of was my last – “All Watches Should Be Unisex – And Here’s Why,” which created a shift in the industry and how watches are marketed and made.In addition to my editorial duties, I managed all Limited Editions with the likes of IWC, Omega, Hermés, and G-Shock/John Mayer, which paved the way for my next endeavor – children’s watches.After my departure from HODINKEE in Spring 2021, I launched Parchie in late summer 2021, a fun and educational watch brand for kid’s named after my childhood imaginary friend. Since launching, Parchie has seen immediate success and has been praised by the likes of Vogue, the New York Times, and Forbes.
