The Solune Grand Art Creation Collection celebrates artistic freedom, bespoke craftsmanship and Swiss Made watchmaking.
Each timepiece is created on demand as a unique canvas for your personal vision. Choose your own design, motif, colour palette or symbolic inspiration, and our artisans will transform it into a one-of-a-kind handcrafted dial. Every detail is realised by hand using exceptional métiers d’art techniques, creating a personalised Swiss watch that reflects your story and individuality.
Your bespoke creation is also available in the more intimate Médaillon version and can be paired with either the sculptural Solune case or the refined Octolune bezel. From the case architecture to the dial artwork, each watch becomes a singular work of art made exclusively for you.
Custom engravings are charged CHF 15.

Handcrafted artistic dial
The artistic value of this watch lies in its individually handcrafted dial. Created by a named artist or artisan using traditional métiers d’art techniques, every dial carries subtle variations resulting from the human hand and the materials used.
Reliable Swiss mechanical base
The watch is powered by the Swiss ETA 2892-A2 automatic calibre in TOP grade. This established movement was selected for its reliability, slim construction and long-term serviceability, allowing the handcrafted dial to remain at the centre of the creation.

UNLIMITED CREATION, PERSONAL EXPRESSION
Creation is the Maison’s fully bespoke watch experience, conceived for those seeking a truly custom-made watch without a predefined artistic direction.
You may choose the theme, colours, pattern, symbolism or visual atmosphere, and our design team will shape these elements into a coherent dial concept.
Depending on your idea, we collaborate with one of our Companions or identify the most appropriate artistic technique to bring the project to life. The result is not simply a personalised watch, but a unique timepiece created around your vision.
FROM FIRST IDEA TO FINAL ARTWORK
YOUR CREATIVE JOURNEY
Throughout the entire process, you are assisted by our design team and invited to follow the creation of your watch from beginning to end. From the first sketches and material research to the artistic execution and final integration, every stage is developed in dialogue with you. You may also provide your own artwork, illustration, photograph or personal motif as the foundation of the design. Each proposal is studied individually, as feasibility depends on the chosen craft, materials, dimensions and technical constraints of the dial.
A WATCH THAT EXISTS ONLY ONCE
Creation is ideal for a meaningful luxury gift, a one-of-a-kind collector’s watch or a personal timepiece carrying a story that cannot be reproduced.
Whether created to mark an anniversary, celebrate an achievement, preserve a memory or transform an artwork into a wearable object, each project is developed as a singular commission. This bespoke watch service offers the freedom to create a dial with its own identity, guided by artistic craftsmanship, technical expertise and the human touch of the Maison’s Companions.

TECHNICAL DETAILS
AT A GLANCE
Every Schaefer & Companions creation is built around refined materials, architectural case finishing and handcrafted artistic dial techniques. Each detail is designed to combine mechanical precision with a strong visual identity.
SOLUNE AND OCTOLUNE CASE ARCHITECTURE
SCULPTED IN 904L STEEL, SHAPED BY LIGHT
Crafted from 904L stainless steel, the Solune and Octolune cases express the identity of Schaefer & Companions through geometry, light, and proportion.
Solune is designed as a sculptural watch case, with faceted surfaces and a sun-inspired bezel that reflect light across polished and satin-finished angles. On Grand Art editions, the inner bezel features an engraved moon cycle, framing the handcrafted dial with a discreet celestial signature.
Octolune offers a more restrained interpretation, with an eight-sided bezel and balanced geometry. Its polished facets, brushed surfaces, and 904L steel construction preserve the same play of light in a more minimal architectural form.
SCULPTURAL CASE PROFILE
FACETED SIDES AND ARCHITECTURAL LUGS
From the side, the case reveals one of its most distinctive features: a sculptural profile built around tension, depth, and precision. The case is not simply shaped to hold a movement and dial. It is designed as a small architectural object, where each bevel, edge, and transition contributes to the visual identity of the watch.
The lugs extend from the case with a strong yet fluid presence, giving the watch a bold silhouette while preserving comfort on the wrist. Their sculpted form creates a natural continuity between the case and strap, reinforcing the sense that every element has been drawn as part of the same artistic composition.
Through contrasting finishes, the side of the case becomes a surface of expression. Polished bevels catch the light sharply, while matte and brushed areas create depth and contrast. This balance between brilliance and restraint gives Solune and Octolune their distinctive presence: technical, artistic, and immediately recognizable.
ASTRAL HANDS
CELESTIAL TIME IN MOTION
Inspired by the cosmos, the Astral Hands complete the celestial identity of the Solune and Octolune collections. The hour and minute hands combine brushed and polished finishes, creating a refined contrast that enhances legibility while echoing the case’s play of light.
At the center, the seconds hand becomes a moving star. Shaped as a seven-pointed astral symbol, it turns endlessly above the dial, bringing the artwork to life with a continuous celestial motion. This rotating star transforms the reading of time into a poetic gesture, where every second becomes part of a wider orbit.
Together, the hands, case, and dial form a coherent artistic watchmaking language. They express the core vision of Schaefer & Companions: Swiss mechanical watches designed not only to measure time, but to frame handcrafted art, cosmic inspiration, and the beauty of uniqueness.
