ABOUT KERIS

A new way to experience watchmaking.

"We do not design watches. We reveal what makes them come alive."

Atelier KERIS — Corcelles, Neuchâtel, Switzerland

WHY

"There is a moment when a watch stops being an object — and becomes a system you begin to understand.
KERIS was created for that moment."

01

Our Vision

To invent new ways to discover, understand and admire watchmaking.

02

Our Mission

Making the invisible visible.

To create objects and experiences that reveal the spectacular nature of mechanical watch movements.

03

Our Expertise

Changing scale requires reinventing everything. Materials, tolerances, kinematics, assembly methods — every aspect must be rethought. KERIS approaches large-scale watchmaking as a discipline in itself, combining engineering, horological knowledge and creative problem-solving to achieve faithful and functional results.

EXPERTISE

ENGINEERING & WORKSHOP

ENGINEERING

Reinventing every parameter.

Changing scale requires reinventing everything. Weight, friction, and inertia behave differently at 7:1. Every component is redesigned from the ground up — from 3D CAD models to kinematic simulations — ensuring each mechanism operates with precision at monumental scale.

"Tolerances measured in hundredths of a millimeter. Every detail matters."

WORKSHOP

Watchmaking care, at every scale.

Hand-brushed surfaces, polished edges — each element is treated with the same care applied to the finest timepieces. Our atelier in Corcelles houses assembly benches and hand-finishing stations where every sculpture takes shape.

DISTRIBUTION

RARITY BY DESIGN

KERIS sculptures are released in strictly limited quantities through a curated drop-based model. Each release is an event — announced to our community and available for a limited window.

We do not mass-produce. We do not restock. Once a series is complete, it enters the archive.
