Polishing tools at Haldimann Horology

Atelier · · by Christian Bissener

These are the polishing tools Beat Haldimann uses to polish parts by hand, the tourbillon cage among them. Polishing a complete tourbillon cage this way takes more than a week.

It is this that fascinates us about the great independent watchmakers. Every visit to an atelier like this one feels like entering a different world, and it shows what watchmaking is about: passion, dedication, skill and perfection.
