Artisans du Geneve

Hello Everybody, just wondering if anyone has any experience in commissioning this company to modify a watch?

I have an idea to mod a no date sub, any idea of cost, time waitlist etc?

Thank you!

I've worked on a few watches with them.

The cost ranges from 35k to 55k Swiss francs, depending on what you request.

I've been buying from them since the very beginning, so I didn't have to wait long, and I suppose I'm considered a good customer.

For the watch or for the custom work alone?

The prices do not include the watch itself.

Some I like and some I don't but was always fascinated with the moonphase sub they did for Paul Watson. If you've spend your life on and in the water you have an appreciation for the moon and tides. I think it's a great idea for a sub variation.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you need to supply the watch, then go back and forth in the design process for the next few months. In addition to sending them the watch you want worked on, they also collect some sort of deposit.

love their work, they have some really creative pieces. one of the questions i always had was service. if you need service or fixing, do you send it back directly to artisans? what happens if the company were to close?

These are awesome congratulations! I have thought about working with on a few Daytonas. But your Pomeranian is nicer than the watches I have two.
