It is important to our eyes d ' to act locally, this is why our watches are assembled by hand in France, near Besançon, by professional and experienced watchmakers. In its history, France is the true cradle of European watchmaking. We therefore wish to maintain and develop this great heritage by combining both the times of tradition and modernity.

Nearly half of our bracelets and bags are made from leathers made from vegetable tanning. This tanning method is less harmful to tanner craftsmen and environmentally friendly because tannin is from nature itself. And we will gradually increase that proportion.
