Recently Monaco has witnessed the creation of a new independent luxury watch brand – Les Ateliers de Monaco. Inspired by the people, scenery and creative heritage of Monaco the brand creates iconic timepieces that are derived from their passion to challenge existing conventions to leave a true legacy.
The new brand is supported by Peter and Aletta Stas, the owners of Swiss brands Frederique Constant and Alpina. The new brand is going to produce up to 30 pieces this year with a goal of growing to 130 pieces annual production with prices starting at 88,000 Swiss francs.
The first watch model presented by Ateliers de Monaco is Carré d’Or watch. The timepiece owes its name to the famous square in the centre of the Principality of Monaco. The case of the new watch has a titanium core to which golden parts are secured. In the result the shape of the case is rather complicated but harmonious.
As far as the movement is concerned the main zest o it is the transparent sapphire tourbillon bridge. The movement also features carved heraldic rotor, guilloche main plate and blued screws. The rotor is partly seen from the face of the timepiece – at the lower part of the dial.
