HAUTE-RIVE Event June 2025
June 28, 11am - 7pm
We were honored to welcome Stéphane von Gunten, Swiss watch engineer and visionary who debuted his own company HAUTE-RIVE in 2023. Stéphane is undoubtedly an industry expert, having worked almost 20 years at prestigious watchmaking Maisons. With this exclusive event at our store, guests had the opportunity to meet Stéphane in person and hear firsthand the story and philosophy behind HAUTE RIVE.
The highlight of the event was the showcase of two color variants of HONORIS I, HAUTE RIVE’s latest timepiece. Guests experienced the artistry of the watch up close, with Stéphane personally showcasing its intricate details, inspiration, and engineering. The event offered a unique chance to connect directly with the creative force behind the brand, engage in thoughtful conversation, and enjoy an intimate evening of fine watchmaking.
Both HONORIS I Lagoverde and White Gold pieces were presented at the event. Guests were invited to admire the extraordinary craftsmanship up close and to take turns trying on the watches. Specifically the mesmerizing color of Lavgoverde, which is inspired by Lake Neuchâtel: a luminous layer of translucent green grand feu enamel that evokes the lake’s shifting hues.
Guests were also invited to inspect the mechanical poetry of the watches’ flying mystery tourbillon at 6 o’clock, visually balanced by the sculptural “Wheel of Time” at 12, capturing the dual essence of time: visible and hidden, measured and elusive.
We thoroughly enjoyed connecting with the creative force behind the brand. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this memorable occasion.
