STAINTON WATCHES IS (at least I hope so by the time you're reading this) A HOUSEHOLD NAME
But how did it become so?
In 2022, I had crippling anxiety, so much so that I couldn't even go to school. I knew I didn't want to live the rest of my life like that, to have people feeling sorry for me, so I just took the leap and started going to school again.
And I quickly started to gain confidence, and my anxiety began to disappear. I became a lot happier.
But I still felt like my life had no direction, that it had no substance. I was bored with my life; I wanted to be strong, I wanted to make a difference to the world.
So that's what I did.
In November of that year, I started working out with a couple of dumbbells I bought for £30 on Amazon. It didn't start as much, but if I never got into working out, you wouldn't be reading this right now. You'd probably be reading somebody else's 'About Us' page.
Over a span of two years I managed to build up immense confidence and discipline. This changed my life.
In September 2023, I launched Stainton Watches. I say launched, but really it was just a terrible 'minimalist' watch I'd imported from China that I was selling on eBay. I was super enthusiastic about it, started marketing it on TikTok, made a few sales and ultimately made a considerable loss.
But I'm not the kind of guy to just call it a day at that. My self-improvement journey changed me. I became relentless.
So I gave it another shot. This website is the result.
I spent months developing the perfect watch, building an image in my mind. All the while I grew my Instagram self-improvement page, where I help young men like myself build confidence and enjoy life more. It all coalesced into the Stainton™ Valor. It's actually hard to believe that I have my own brand, and my own website.
I am obsessed with giving you the premium product you pay for, so that you can effortlessly walk into a room with ascribed confidence.
I can sleep well at night knowing I'm providing value.
THAT IS SOMETHING SPECIAL
That is exactly what younger me would have needed.
Know that if you choose to buy my watch, I’ll look at your name and think what a legend.
I wish you all the best in life :)
Stanley Stainton.
