Our watchmaking process

THE PROCESS

From Idea To Perfection

From the first sketch to the final tick, every Monarte is born from precision, patience, and purpose.

We don’t rush. We don’t cut corners. And we never settle for “good enough.”

This is the journey your watch takes—from idea to perfection.

01 The Design

Every Monarte begins with a single goal:
To create something that makes you stop, look twice, and feel something.

Not just another timepiece.
Not just specs on a page.

A watch that connects. That tells a story.
That reminds you why you fell in love with watchmaking in the first place.

It has to be unique. It has to have presence.
It has to earn its place on your wrist.

If it doesn’t do that – it never leaves the sketchbook.

Because we’re not here to build more watches.
We’re here to craft the ones that matter.

02 The Prototype

Before your watch was ready for you – 
it went through everything it needed to earn its place.

The prototype stage is where ideas meet reality.
Where lines on a screen become something you can feel in your hand.

But this isn’t about first impressions.
It’s about second thoughts. And third rounds. And fourth versions.

We rework proportions.
Adjust curves.
Test comfort on real wrists.

Because when your Monarte arrives, it should feel like the final version of something that was never rushed.

It should feel like it was made for you – because it was made with you in mind.

03 The Production

Monarte watches aren’t pumped off a line.
They’re assembled – piece by piece – by skilled watchmakers in Switzerland.

There’s no rushing here.
No automation replacing craftsmanship.
Just hands, tools, and the experience that only time can teach.

Every movement is regulated.
Every caseback is sealed by hand.
Every link, crown, and dial placed with care.

So when you open the box, you’re not just holding a watch.
You’re holding hours of human effort – and decades of know-how.

04 Quality Control

When you wear a Monarte, there should be no second-guessing.
No wondering if something slipped through. No “maybe” in the back of your mind.

That’s why every watch is inspected, part by part, from start to finish.

Before it leaves our hands, it goes through multiple layers of control – checking the fit, the finish, the timing, the feel.

Not in batches. Not at random.

Every single watch. Every single time.

So when it’s on your wrist, it just feels right.
And more importantly – you trust it.

05 Final Inspection

The last hands to touch your Monarte are those of a master watchmaker.

With decades of experience, they carry out the final inspection—checking alignment, performance, and feel.

Not to find flaws.
But to confirm excellence.

This is the moment a timepiece becomes a Monarte.

Signed off by tradition. Ready for your wrist.

06 The Product

Days of assembly.
Months of refinement.
Years of Swiss experience—now on your wrist.

That’s what you wear when you wear a Monarte.

Not just a watch.
But the purest form of what we believe in:
Mono. Artus.
Pure art.

And to prove we stand behind every detail,
every Monarte is backed by a 5-year warranty.
