Requirement for excellence

For more than three centuries, Geneva has developped and maintained the role of watchmaking capital, home to the finest craftsmen and invaluable expertise.

Stéphane Barbier-Mueller creates his watches, all produced in limited series, in the pure Geneva horology tradition. He imagined a classically styled watch that evoked the rich history of human creation throughout the ages, drawing his inspiration from one of the earliest pictorial techniques – the art of mosaics. Thanks to the involvement of some of the finest contemporary artisans, including Les Boitiers-Genève SA – specialists who are known for their precious and complex cases - and Les Cadraniers de Genève, who work magic with watch faces, his vision gradually took shape in the form of a rare and exclusive object.

In his search for excellence he joined forces with his friend, watchmaker François-Paul Journe, who brought his renowned horological mastery to the collections, with an original mechanical movement manufactured entirely in Geneva. A guarantee of quality and longevity for these watches, which will be offered in a handful of FPJourne –Invenit&Fecit– boutiques.
