Schwarz Etienne who manufacture movements and all components including Hairsprings (1 of 3 companies in the world to do so along with Parmigiani & Swatch Group Nivarox) showed off their Roma, Roswell, Fiji collections & La Chaux-du-Fond Tourbillon with retrograde second (Pictured Below) ![]() Some of the brands in attendance will produce only a few hundred timepieces whilst even the highest will only make several thousand. Rather than saturating markets these independent brands showcase their finesse, skill, attention to detail and dare to be different producing high complications such as Tourbillons, Minute Repeaters, Retrogrades, Perpetual Moonphase/Calendars to name a few. Never before have so many independent brands come to the High Street together to showcase the alternatives to the numerous mainstream brands seen in many multiple locations in our towns and cities. This was a wonderful collection of watch houses highlighting exclusive, highly engineered timepieces, crafted not for commerciality but for the love of Horology itself. Also in attendance courtesy of The Limited Edition and MD Pietro Tomajer were HYT, Armin Strom & Louis Moinet. It was presented by Stephen Lee (MD & Co-Founder ) of Remontoire 68 Ltd, with guest speaker & journalist Angus Davies from Escapement Magazine offering an insight into independent watchmaking with brands such as Arnold & Son, Angelus Watches, Fabergé, Schwarz Etienne, and Tutima Glashütte/SA. An evening of Haute Horology in association with Beards Jewellers in Cheltenham was well attended by over 60 watch enthusiasts.
