SHAPING THE FUTURE
Maîtres du Temps is a pantheon in which today’s greatest master watchmakers collaborate on the most innovative horological projects imaginable.
Maîtres du Temps promotes, brings to the fore and celebrates the watchmakers at the very pinnacle of haute horlogerie, those who develop and craft the timepieces and those whose influences, strengths and accomplishments shape the watchmaking of today and tomorrow.
The brand launched in 2008 with Chapter One by Christophe Claret and Peter Speake-Marin, a timepiece that features a world-first combination of tourbillon, mono-pusher column wheel chronograph, retrograde date and GMT, as well as moon phase and day of the week on rollers. In 2009, Maîtres du Temps presented the world’s most legible triple calendar wristwatch, Chapter Two, by Daniel Roth and Peter Speake-Marin. The stunningly elegant Chapter Three Reveal—with GMT and day/night indication hidden under the dial—was created by Kari Voutilainen and Andreas Strehler and launched in early 2012.
