Really, you’re wearing a record-breaking dive watch, so adding a link diver on the watch is an example of link serious overkill – people know you mean business link if you choose this watch – duh!! Don’t be a silly Wes Anderson hipster and rock the "Steve Zissou" either.
Anne-Laure's love of watchmaking comes from pushing boundaries, and realizing the link potential of haute horology as a craft and as an art. For Michel, it comes from restoration, his roots in the industry. He looks at the old timepieces and studies link them – noting the old techniques that went into their creation. He believes link we've lost a fair amount of historical knowledge in watchmaking, and that education – and looking to the past – is so important.
