A MASTER’S LEGACY

Ferdinand Berthoud Naissance une Montre III

In a world increasingly ruled by technology, we take you inside a rare and extraordinary project where the human touch reigns supreme.

Join us to discover the making of another legendary watch by Ferdinand Berthoud. Our film follows the making of a unique timepiece, a technical and artistic feat that demanded the very best of traditional Swiss watchmaking savoir-faire, using traditional tools, ancestral techniques, and nothing but human skill.

🔹 Engine-turning by hand on century-old rose lathes

🔹 Manual "anglage" and polishing of every component

🔹 Construction of a bi-metallic balance wheel adjusted for temperature — without digital intervention

🔹 In-house design and fabrication of tools and prototypes

🔹 A collaborative, intergenerational effort across disciplines and métiers d’art

La Naissance d’une Montre III is more than a timepiece. It is a declaration of intent: to preserve watchmaking knowledge, to pass it on, and to prove that in today’s industrial world, excellence through the human hand is still possible.
