Mr. Albert Hausammann, a legend influencing the HK watch industry
Mr. Albert Hausammann, an industry pioneer who introduced many iconic brands such as Breguet, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger-LeCoultre and later Harry Winston to Hong Kong at a time when these maisons were still independent entities. It was a time when the most coveted independent brands we know and love today were still relatively unknown and perhaps not even conceived yet.
To give back to the horological community and nurture the next generation of watchmaking talent in Hong Kong, a portion of the proceeds from this auction will be dedicated to Mr Hausammann’s foundation – the Albert Hausammann Foundation. We proudly support those with the courage to be different in a world that emphasises conformity.

VISITING Krayon in Neuchâtel
April 2024
In Neuchâtel, home to Switzerland's largest lake, found significance in sunrise and sunset times, which ultimately led to the creation of Krayon. We took a train from Geneva to Neuchâtel. An hour and a half later, we found ourselves on the second floor of a mansion, overlooking a serene blue lake.
