The DIGNITAS HOT HAMMERED marks my inaugural artistic collaboration, joining forces with renowned American knifemaker Todd Rexford to create an exceptional timepiece for a collector in Japan. To withstand the intense hot-hammering process, the movement’s bridges were completely redesigned for enhanced resilience.
Following these new specifications, the zirconium dial and bridge components were raw manufactured and subsequently hot-hammered by Rexford, resulting in a distinctively textured, organic finish. I then meticulously adjusted every parameter of these bespoke parts to seamlessly integrate into the movement. Through rigorous hand-finishing, a high-end polishing was applied to their sides, anglages and countersinks too, achieving a striking, sophisticated contrast across the components’ surfaces.

The Vox Vinum Grande Sonnerie 1/1 is a bespoke masterpiece I created from a passionate collector’s vision. Built upon the foundation of a historic pocket watch movement, the timepiece houses over 400 meticulously finished components. To deliver maximum acoustic resonance within a wearable, compact size, I designed and crafted the entire round case completely in-house, also manufacturing numerous parts from scratch – including the intricate, flourished bridges and every single steel screw turned by hand.
To ensure flawless longevity and striking color contrast, the functional elements – the slide, buttons, crown, and screws – are sculpted from lightweight, heat-blued titanium. The flanks of the case feature ornate, hand-engraved grapevines, giving beautiful visual form to the voice of wine, and reflecting the owner’s passion and the very name of the watch.

The DIGNITAS POWER RESERVE Klimt Kiss 1/1 is less of a timepiece and more a wearable work of art, created as a strictly one-of-a-kind bespoke project for a passionate fine art collector. Its centerpiece is a breathtaking miniature enamel dial—a meticulous, vibrant reproduction of Gustav Klimt’s masterpiece, Der Kuss.
To ensure this artwork is never obscured, I crafted the hands from transparent sapphire crystal and re-engineered the power reserve complication to the back of the watch, using miniature, kiss-shaped motifs for the indicator.
Framing this horological canvas, the 18-karat gold bezel is sculpted like a fine picture frame. The back of the case honors the master with Klimt’s engraved name. Beneath this artistic triumph beats a fully in-house caliber, hand-finished in my atelier to my uncompromising standards of haute horlogerie.
