Romain Gauthier creates exquisite timepieces designing, developing and manufacturing all components, with the only exception of mainspring, balance spring and jewels. He launched his own brand in 2005 in Le Sentier, in the Vallée de Joux, with the creation of the Prestige HM, an innovative watch with a proprietary winding system (no visible crown), off-centre indications and a meticulously hand-finished in-house movement.
