About Nina Scally

Nina Scally is an English freelance writer specializing in the luxury watch industry. Her favorite brands are German watchmakers Nomos and Meistersinger and British brand Bremont.

Background: Nina’s love of luxury timepieces began in 2011 when she acquired her first role as a watch sales manager in the quaint British town of Ashbourne in the Peak District. Her passion for dive watches and sports watches blossomed as her knowledge in the industry grew, enabling her to talk for hours on the topic with affluent collectors who traveled from far and wide to acquire rare, covetable timepieces.

When Nina left the business to start a family, her unwavering curiosity for horology drew her back into the industry. Her second encounter with timepieces flourished through her love of writing – a deep-rooted childhood passion.

Expertise: Over the years, Nina has enjoyed a career working with some of the industry’s most reputable online watch magazines and retailers, including Fratello Watches and, of course, The Slender Wrist. Other examples include her written work for the world’s second-largest online Rolex journal, Bob’s Watches, and the world’s third-largest online luxury watch magazine, Monochrome.

Aside from juggling the demanding roles of motherhood, Nina spends her time getting creative in the home and has a passion for papercraft and swimming. Above all, the most rewarding aspect of writing in this niche space of the luxury watch market is the chance to deliver a female voice to what was once often considered a very male-driven industry.
