The Abingdon Co. began during a round table dinner conversation between a mix of women pilots and airplane mechanics. Pilot and company founder Chelsea Abingdon Welch listened as her colleagues repeatedly expressed their desires for a fully functional aviator's watch that was "fashionable, versatile and, most importantly, made for women".^[3] Abingdon first spent over 11 months designing two models—the Jackie and the Amelia—and then launched the company on November 3, 2007.^[4]
