Years of experience in watchmaking

A craft learned
through practice.

Over 55 years in watchmaking means having dealt with different requirements, production problems and decisions that look simple on paper.

Through DEPA Time Tec, I put that experience at the service of your projects. A direct working relationship to understand your needs, discuss alternatives and find a practical way forward.

Understand first.
Then build.

  1. An initial conversation

    Tell me what you want to create. I examine your requirements, the available material and the points still to be defined.

  2. A clear way forward

    Together, we define the work required, the priorities and the specialists to involve, with a clear scope.

  3. Following the work

    I remain your technical point of contact throughout development, addressing questions as they arise through to the agreed checks.
