Workshops - Creation

A DeLaneau watch is not so much made as created out of passion, skill, knowledge, dedication and the very finest materials.

The commitment to hand craftsmanship that is central to DeLaneau's values means that each one of our watches is, by its very nature, unique. It is not physically possible to make timepieces with this degree of finish without the application of hundreds of hours of work in a variety of different disciplines - these include designing, enamelling, engraving and gem-setting, in addition to the hand assembly and adjustment of our mechanical movements.

As a result, a DeLaneau watch is a truly exclusive object. Each piece takes time to evolve meaning production capacity is naturally limited. DeLaneau watches are made in hundreds, not thousands.

Nature is central to the themes of our dial designs, but our commitment to creating only 'pieces unique' means that clients have the opportunity to sit down with us to ensure that their watch evolves into the timepiece of their dreams. The result is a one-off creation that will never be duplicated.
