# Atelier Chaunu — Genève

> Independent watchmaking concept from Geneva, Switzerland.

Atelier Chaunu is an independent watchmaking concept founded by Philippe Chaunu in Geneva. The brand explores the intersection of mechanical watchmaking, nature-inspired design, and modern technology.

## The Chaunu Hybrid Watch

The Chaunu Hybrid Watch is the brand's debut timepiece — a concept watch that combines:

- Jumping 24-hour digital display
- Retrograde minute arc
- Emerald vine guilloché engraving inspired by living forms
- French calendar (day and month)
- Mechanical moonphase complication
- Hybrid energy system: automatic rotor powers both mechanical and digital layers
- Sapphire exhibition caseback with visible movement
- Inductive wireless charging ring

The dial features an organic vine guilloché pattern representing the flow of time through nature. At night, luminous details glow in emerald green.

## Philosophy

"Mechanical Heart. Digital Mind." — Atelier Chaunu believes traditional craftsmanship and modern technology can coexist, creating watches that honor horology's past while exploring its future.
