RENAUD TIXIER

A chance meeting in 2016 sparked a dynamic partnership between Dominique Renaud and Julien Tixier-two minds whose talents align with uncanny precision. Blending Renaud’s groundbreaking horological vision with Tixier’s masterful craftsmanship, the duo has created mechanical marvels that push the limits of traditional watchmaking. Their collaboration is a rare fusion of experimental R&D and artisanal finesse, rooted in friendship and shared obsession.

Their first major achievement, the Tempus Fugit, is the world’s smallest secular perpetual calendar—an awe-inspiring microcosm of time designed for 9,999 years. It was followed by a remarkable piece for Only Watch 2023, where they dared to simplify the grande complication, redesigning its entire mechanical architecture. Compact, modular, and finished to perfection, this latest creation is a testament to the duo’s relentless pursuit of innovation. This is not just watchmaking—it’s the beginning of a new language in time.
