THE DEFINITION OF LUXURY WATCH MAKING
True luxury is not about excess, competitiveness or overt displays of wealth – it is about an understanding of quality, craftsmanship and exclusivity. These elements are key to the creation of a DeLaneau watch, and each and every one we make remains true to this ethos through and through.
Such commitment has been a cornerstone of the DeLaneau philosophy since its founding in 1949 when it was established in Biel, Switzerland, as a producer of bespoke watches for private collectors. Gradually, its reputation as a true artisan watch house began to grow and now, more than 60 years later, it is recognized for both its exclusivity and for its exceptional standards of artistry.
SMALL AND UNDENIABLY BEAUTIFUL
An unashamedly small enterprise, DeLaneau employs only a handful of artisans – but every one of them is dedicated to making watches that are truly exceptional both in their design and finish; they see themselves as conjurors, alchemists, sculptors and painters whose task it is to invoke their own personal magic to create timepieces that can truly be described as art for the wrist.
DeLaneau watches are made in hundreds, not thousands. This is what makes a DeLaneau watch truly covetable.
