HOROLOGY

AN ABSOLUTE REFUSAL TO COMPLY

Our signature lies in the fierce determination to create freely and without compromise, venturing into the unknown through an unbridled artistic expression. Tirelessly pushing the limits, we allow ourselves unreasonable and fanciful aspirations.

“Venture to the farthest reaches
of the creative map.”

SMALL-SCALE MANUFACTURING

In order to guarantee meticulous craftsmanship and strong collectability, we will limit our annual production of the Mirage to 24 pieces. This is moreover what enables us to offer a special service and build a privileged relationship with each and every collector.

CELEBRATING HIGH HOROLOGY

We conceive, develop, manufacture and assemble our timepieces entirely in the Neuchâtel canton (Switzerland), at the heart of the historic watchmaking region, with utmost attention to detail. We’ve built strong bonds with local artisans, aim to support the local economy and perpetuate traditional know-how.
