Located in Les Brenets and Le Locle, our workshops are specialized in key fields, such as prototyping, hand-finishing and machine decorations, for applications ranging from watchmaking (casing and movement) to accessories for the luxury industry.
The combination of experience and expertise acquired during many years working at big watchmaking brands is certainly one reason our competent, young and dynamic team consistently delivers solutions that are always on point and on time. The other is a unique creative energy.
