Dear my fashionistas, welcome to another new fashion adventure on the Mr.M blog. We have to admit that this year, April surprised us quite a bit with an unexpected “cold wave”, so even some parts of Europe were covered with a “white cover”. That’s why I used the cold days to enjoy the winter magic and show you some new fashion novelties!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You all know how much I love watches and that I always try to show you some interesting brands of watches. Today we will learn something new about one luxury Swiss brand that makes unusual watches – Armand Nicolet<\/a><\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Armand Nicolet was born in the town of Tramelan, a small town located in the canton of Bern in Switzerland. As the son of a celebrated watchmaker, he followed in his father’s footsteps and built his own small watch studio called the Atelier d\u2019Horlogerie, to create his masterpiece in 1902. Unfortunately, in 1939, Mr. Armand Nicolet dies and his son Willy continues the family business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the first half of the 20th century, Tramelan became the third pole of the Swiss watch industry. During this period, Nicolet SA specialized in refining complicated mechanical movements for other well-known Swiss brands and specialized in the production of Venus movements whose components were composed of various sophisticated calibres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Willy Nicolet was old and unfortunately did not have direct descendants to continue the family business, but fate had a second plan\u2026 Meeting Mr. Rolando Braga in 1987, a famous Italian entrepreneur and passionate lover of watches, who has been active in horology circles for more than 20 years , realized that he had found the ideal person to continue this brand success story with a new vision and mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the secret of exceptional quality?<\/em> The Armand Nicolet production center is also a watch repair service center. In this way, unchanged quality is ensured because all repairs are entrusted to a professional team that works exclusively with original spare parts.

All Armand Nicolet<\/a><\/strong><\/em> watches are divided into two collections: Watch collections with Original Historical Movements (O.H.M Series<\/a><\/strong><\/em>) and Contemporary watch collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collection of watches with Original Historical Movements is a series of watches that contain original historical movements from the 1950s and 1960s that have been preserved from oblivion and specially set in the Armand Nicolet atelier. These series are produced only in limited series because the amount of these precious watches is determined by the amount of original historical mechanisms that are still available. Armand Nicolet team of professional watchmakers manually renew and reassemble each of these unique pieces. These precious mechanisms are the result of many years of expertise, dedication and love for the fine arts of creating watches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
