THE PROJECT OF MR I.S.L.
BROWN ICE
THE POWER OF ELEMENTS
Icy blue and rich brown tones, inspired by the depth of lakes and runabout boats.
Inspired by the timeless elegance of runabout boats, polished mahogany wood and chrome
details, Brown Ice reflects the reflections, depth and contrasts of nature, while embodying
the power of the elements through meticulous craftsmanship.
TURNING THE ORDINARY INTO SOMETHING UNIQUE

A WORKSHOP
ON A HUMAN
SCALE
Artisans de Genève embodies the fusion between people and watchmaking. A House where people share and revisit their watches together, according to their aspirations. It’s in Geneva that all the traditional watchmaking crafts are brought together in a single place, offering a multitude of possibilities to meet the different needs and desires of each individual. It is in this dedicated setting that all of the restorations, repairs and modifications we carry out at the request of each customer are created by hand.

AN ART
DEDICATED
TO OTHERS
Since its creation, L’Atelier has always worked to offer passionate customers a more personal watchmaking experience. A return to the origins of the craft, where the watchmaker devotes himself to the individual desires of each customer, according to his own codes, tastes and history. A return to the roots of a vocation where man, his hands and his tools are definitively the key to his customers’ desires.

GUARDIANS OF
MEMORIES
Creativity has been at the heart of our workshop since its inception. Our work almost always consists of bringing together the memories and moments of each individual and transcribing them into the language of watchmaking. Combining different skills and crafts to bring these often intangible moments to life through each person’s project. Combining surprising colours with often forgotten crafts to bring to life, for a moment, old techniques and skills steeped in memories.

STRENGTH
BENEATH
THE
SURFACE
The skeletonized movement is sandblasted and palladium-treated, delicately crafted to
embody a balance between strength and fragility. Each element is hand-cut, bevelled and
polished, to reveal the intricate inner workings of the watch.

INTO
THE CORE
Through an interplay of materials, the depths of the watch emerges, as clear and layered as
water. The ice-blue skeletonized dial with blued hour-markers, sapphire date disk and a
translucent sapphire case revealing a blued oscillating rotor, create a striking interplay of
light and layers.
