You will witness this burning desire to convey the passion driving each of our professionals in the julien Coudray fascinating adventure!

Creating a “grand feu” enamel watch dial demands years of observation, learning and experience under master-enamellers specialised in watchmaking. The apparent unruliness of this fascinating material is bit by bit overcome by expertise, with failures becoming setbacks and then success.

The exceptional “miniature” technique, reserved for the most skilled enamellers, is a subtle blend between miniature painting and enamelling. Whether applied by individual spots or painting, each particle will find its place in the design pattern, coming together in exquisite harmony, which is given a timeless unalterable quality by firing.
