Our Watch Techniques
The Art of Materials in our Watchmaking
We pride ourselves on our unparalleled expertise in working with a vast array of materials to create timepieces that embody both luxury and innovation. Our advanced manufacturing capabilities allow us to produce watches in nearly every conceivable material, ensuring that each component—from the case to the clasp—meets the highest standards of quality and aesthetics.
1. Watch Cases: The Foundation of Durability & Style
The case is the heart of a watch, and we master a wide range of materials to suit every design vision:
Stainless Steel (316L / 904L) – The industry standard for its corrosion resistance and polished elegance.
Titanium (Grade 2 / Grade 5) – Lightweight yet robust, ideal for sports and aviation watches.
Precious Metals (18K Gold, Platinum, Rose Gold) – For timeless luxury, available in polished, brushed, or satin finishes.
Ceramic (Black / White / Colored) – Scratch-resistant and hypoallergenic, perfect for modern aesthetics.
Carbon Fiber / Forged Carbon – Ultra-lightweight with high-tech appeal, used in racing and dive watches.
Bronze (CuSn8 / Aluminum Bronze) – Develops a unique patina over time, favored by vintage-inspired designs.
Tungsten / Zirconium – Extreme hardness for rugged tool watches.
High-Tech Alloys (Liquidmetal, Ceratanium) – Cutting-edge materials blending ceramic and metal properties.
2. Watch Bezels: Functional & Decorative Accents
Ceramic Inserts – Fade-resistant and durable, often used in dive watches.
Sapphire Crystal Bezels – Transparent or colored, with engraved markings.
Precious Metal Inlays – Gold or platinum accents for luxury models.
Luminous Bezel Rings – Coated with Super-LumiNova® for low-light visibility.
3. Watch Dials: The Canvas of Time
We craft dials in materials that balance beauty and legibility:
Brass (Gilt / Lacquered / Sunray-Brushed) – The traditional base for high-end dials.
Solid Gold (Guilloché-Engraved) – Hand-finished for haute horlogerie pieces.
Enamel (Grand Feu / Cloisonné) – A centuries-old art form for exquisite textures.
Meteorite / Mother-of-Pearl – Naturally unique patterns for limited editions.
Carbon Fiber / Skeletonized – Modern and technical, revealing the movement beneath.
Stone Dials (Onyx, Lapis Lazuli, Malachite) – Rare and striking natural materials.
4. Watch Hands & Indices: Precision in Detail
Blued Steel Hands – Flame-treated for a rich blue hue.
