Alain Silberstein
A timepiece by Alain Silberstein is more than just a watch, it is a colorful statement of playfulness and design. Unmistakable in their appearance, at once contemporary expressions of form and movement, they also pay homage to the traditional watchmakers art.
From his workshop on the banks of the Doubs River, Alain Silberstein creates and produces nearly 1,000 watches in different collections each year with the help of his 15 assistants, including four watchmakers.
This Parisian interior architect and designer by profession became a watch-architect in Besançon at the end of the 80's by creating his own watch company. At a time when the disappearance of mechanical watchmaking seemed almost inevitable, he joined the very restricted club of Swiss manufacturers who were behind the rebirth of the mechanical watch.
Born of the mind of a unique designer, Alain Silberstein watches are timepieces which embody the research required in order to create that which is most true to us all--an emotion. This search for emotion in the measuring of time transcends cultures and generations.
