Time, wrought in gold — and rendered in light.

Three ways to
hold an hour.
N° 02
HELIOS
Yellow gold · guilloché · perpetual
The sun at its zenith. A hand-turned guilloché dial in solid gold, catching light at every angle, driven by a perpetual calendar that forgets nothing.
Enter the vault →N° 03
MERIDIAN
Rose gold · dual time · sapphire
The traveller's hour. Two time zones held in rose gold beneath a domed sapphire — the hour you left, and the hour you arrive, read at a glance.
Enter the vault →Le Savoir-faire
Made slowly,
by five hands.
01
Le Dessin — The Sketch
Every piece begins in graphite. A single dial is drawn, discarded, and redrawn forty times before the proportions are permitted to leave the atelier.
3 weeks02
Le Mouvement — The Movement
Two hundred and eighteen components, each finished by hand — bevelled, black-polished, and set with jewels — then assembled beneath a loupe by a single watchmaker.
9 weeks03
Le Cadran — The Dial
The guilloché is cut on a rose engine turned by hand. One slip ruins the plate; there is no undoing a line engraved in gold.
5 weeks04
Le Boîtier — The Case
Eighteen-carat gold is cast, milled, and polished across nine stages until the surface returns light like still water.
4 weeks05
L'Assemblage — The Regulation
The finished calibre is regulated in six positions over a fortnight, until it keeps time to within two seconds a day — and only then is it signed.

La Maison
We do not measure time. We adorn it — casting each hour in gold and letting the light do the rest. A watch from AURUM is not a thing you own, but a thing you keep.
