Marcar el tiempo
Harper's Bazaar en Español|Agosto 2020
Para contar los minutos, las horas, los días y hasta las lunas fueron inventados los relojes. Hoy, ante un mundo lleno de dispositivos digitales que nos invaden, los modelos hechos a mano se especializan en complicaciones tomando la estética y los siglos invertidos como la mejor razón para vivir el momento.

Marcar el tiempo

Para llegar al Vallée de Joux se necesita un auto equi-pado para deslizarse en una densa nevada y un buen estómago, pues hay infinidad de curvas cerradas en-tre Ginebra y ese sitio que es el más relevante de la relojería en el mundo. Estamos hablando de una pe-queñísima población no sólo aislada por su geografía, sino también por el clima, donde la temperatura baja drásticamente y la nieve blanquísima es parte de la naturaleza cotidiana. Cómo será el frío, que uno de los productos tradicionales de exportación de esa zona ha sido el hielo.

Ahí, enclavado en el corazón del valle, rodeado de impresionantes montañas, se encuentra el edificio histórico donde la familia de Jules Audemars vivió y creó su negocio en relojería junto con Edward Piguet. No obstante, ese espacio ha sido intervenido por el despacho arquitectónico BIG para convertir la casa familiar, que había fungido como museo desde 1992, en un espacio para el taller, archivo y conservación de relojería; un estudio dedicado a la reparación de piezas antiguas y salas de reunión.
