The legacy of watchmaking through the ages

- JIAAN KRIS JAMSHŶD LAM

PRICELESS

Stories draw us together, binding us in memories, culture, language, habits and hobbies, invoking emotional responses that leave behind priceless footprints of patrimony legacies.

I write this article in homage to the creators and their incredible achievements that boggle the mind with incredible innovations along the way.

It is this intangible yet undeniable inheritance that defines the enduring legacy of watchmaking. The artistry of a meticulously handcrafted timepiece is in its precision and the passion poured into every gear, every dial, and every escapement. Behind each legendary brand lies the dedication of master watchmakers who spent centuries refining and immortalising their craft.

A fine watch is a testament to history, a silent custodian of the milestones in our lives.

It carries forth the stories of those who wore it before us and promises to accompany future generations in their journeys.

The true essence of horology is found in deeply personal relationships, whether passed down through generations or acquired as a symbol of a milestone, a fine timepiece is a bridge between the past, present, and future.

BREGUET

Artistry Architect

imageFew to none in the history of horology command the same reverence as Breguet.

More than a watchmaker, Abraham-Louis Breguet was a true visionary who redefined precision timekeeping. The Maison exemplifies ingenuity, technical mastery, and timeless elegance, earning the admiration of royalty, scholars, fellow innovators and discerning collectors. The groundbreaking innovations revolutionised watchmaking and continue to shape the industry today.
