About this reference

To transcend watchmaking and reach the realm of art that is the vision pursued: to create objects where emotion and beauty take precedence over function. Drawing on the knowledge of the past to imagine the watchmaking of tomorrow, each creation becomes a contemporary work with timeless aesthetic codes. The Dream Watch 5 embodies this vision, at the crossroads of design and technology a true wrist sculpture with taut lines and silky curves. Its minimalist display and miniaturized mechanics clearly express the intent to give full prominence to form, material, and artistic meaning.
