Manufacture horlogère · Est. 1987
This watch is running.
The piece beside these words is not a photograph. It is built in light, and its hands are sweeping your own local time, to the second. We thought you should see what we mean by precision before we say another word.
Thirty-eight years, one bench at a time.
Auberon makes fewer than four hundred watches a year, each one assembled, regulated, and cased by a single watchmaker who signs the movement. We buy no complications we did not design and we chase no thinness records; we make watches that keep five seconds a week and outlast the person who buys them. The waiting list is long. It is supposed to be.
The collection
Wheels that will outlive us both.
Every Auberon calibre is finished by hand where nobody will ever look: the underside of the bridges, the inside of the barrel, the teeth of wheels that turn once a day. The train beside these words meshes the way ours do, each wheel driving the next at its own coupled speed. Watch it long enough and you will understand the whole company.
