The Pilot Watch DBF009-07 isn’t just about aesthetics — it beats with history. At its core is the original Felsa calibre 692 from 1948, a beautifully preserved new old stock movement, fully serviced and brought back to life by our expert watchmakers.⁠
⁠
Crafted by Felsa AG, a pioneering Swiss movement manufacturer founded in 1918, this calibre represents a golden era of mechanical innovation — including the legendary Bidynator, the first successful bidirectional automatic movement.⁠
⁠
Every DBF009-07 offers more than just timekeeping — it offers a story. And you’re part of it. Order now and witness your watch being assembled before your eyes in our workshop — a rare and personal journey into the art of Swiss watchmaking.⁠

Vintage charm meets mechanical ingenuity

This rare DuBois 1785 Alarm Watch from the 1970s is more than a timepiece — it’s a conversation starter. Powered by a hand-wound AS-1931 movement, it brings together a mechanical alarm function + date display in a perfectly balanced 37 mm stainless steel case.
The silver-plated sunburst dial catches the light with every movement, while the brand-new handmade light brown strap adds a refined, modern edge. Finished with an acrylic crystal for that authentic vintage feel.

The auction ends today, 8 pm. Place your bid on our website!

DBF008-10 — where heritage becomes visible.

A 39 mm case frames a refined blue gradient dial, crowned by a domed box sapphire crystal that lends the watch an exceptional slimness and grace.

Limited to just 22 pieces, this timepiece is a true precision instrument crafted according to old Swiss watchmaking traditions.

From the bottom-up assembled case to the snap-lock bezel, every detail serves the dial. Connoisseurs will note the soldered, polished horns — a rare, labor-intensive technique revived from early wrist- and pocket-watch making, deliberately chosen to honor historical craftsmanship.

Past techniques.
Present mastery.
