The 5TH is a Melbourne-based retailer focused on watches. Founded in 2014 by Alex McBride, the company designs original timepieces that are released in limited runs and sold through its online store, creating an exclusive purchasing experience. It operates as a small to mid-sized retailer in the retail sector, emphasizing controlled availability rather than mass production. Its stated objective is to broaden access to watchmaking by reducing price barriers and by linking traditional craftsmanship with contemporary culture. The target audience appears to be watch enthusiasts seeking limited-edition pieces that are not readily available, with releases designed to be anticipated rather than immediately accessible.
