Artistic Freedom
The Art Platform of Artistic Collaboration
Schaefer & Companions is an embodiment of Artistic Freedom — an artistic platform where 1 + 1 = 3.
Here, the masterful hands of our Companions unite the noblest métiers d’art with the liberation of creative expression. Enamelling, marquetry, engraving, and micro-painting are not merely techniques but pathways that transcend beauty, giving each contemporary timepiece a contemplative, meditative dimension.
Every creation becomes a celebration of pure craftsmanship, revealing the singular beauty of artisanal work and the human soul’s profound capacity for reflection.

Born in Switzerland, Crafted for the World
A Vision Beyond Borders
At Schaefer & Companions, we have deliberately chosen not to display theSwiss Made label on the dial. This decision is not a compromise, but a statement. Our dials are not exclusively crafted in Switzerland; they are created across the world, shaped by artisans and artists from diverse cultures and backgrounds. Each timepiece becomes an open canvas, welcoming every horizon, every story, and the ancestral savoir-faire of cultures worldwide. A free, sincere, and deeply human vision of contemporary watchmaking.
The Symbolism of Solune
A journey between light and shadow, knowledge and dream.
Solune draws its essence from the Renaissance and the Enlightenment: celebrating art, free thought, and cosmic beauty, where human creativity meets the infinite heavens.
The Sun within the Bezel
Radiant forms of the bezel echo the astral power of the sun.
Like in the age of Renaissance and Enlightenment, it symbolizes light as the origin of harmony, knowledge, and life.
The Engraved Moonphases
Moonphases carved within the Grand Art bezel connect us to the cosmos.
They embody the rhythm of nature, a constant reminder of our place within the universe.
The Infinity Dial
A hypnotic wave opening onto eternity.
Its fluid form evokes limitless imagination, a visual echo of infinite creativity extending beyond the dial.
The Astral Hands
A bold architecture of symmetry and strength.
The case reflects the sculptural vision of the founder, balancing structure and artistry with a timeless sense of proportion.
The Médaillon as Canvas
An intimate space shaped by human hands.
Each médaillon dial is a unique work of art, hand-crafted with passion, opening a window to another universe where creativity knows no bounds.
A Presence Beyond Time
Emerging from the dial like living forms, the Solune hands move as if guided by an invisible rhythm — entities of light navigating through time.
Forged with precision and emotion, they embody the essence of Solune: time as a living space where matter and motion meet the celestial.
