05 — The atelier

Eleven watchmakers. One name on each watch.

Meridian No. 1, a gold pocket watch with an engraved case
Meridian No. 1 · 1911The first watch to leave our bench: a pocket watch with a hand-engraved case. It still sits in the atelier, and the Meridian you configure keeps its proportions.

Our workshop sits at 1,010 metres, above the lake, where the winters are long and the work is quiet. Each Meridian is signed inside the caseback by the watchmaker who built it, and returns to the same hands for service.

06 — The ledger

Kept, not collected.

I wound it on the train home and forgot about it for three days. It was still right.

Owner of a Classique, Lyon

My watchmaker's name is on the caseback. Twelve years later, the same hands opened it for service.

Owner of a Nocturne, Edinburgh

It's the only object I own that gets quieter the longer you look at it.
