In the past decade, watchmaking has seen a significant shift. From highly technical developments, which require large, bulky cases, to smaller, more compact, watches that tell time in a more discrete and personalized way. This has led to a change in both the types of complications and the techniques used in their manufacture.
Enameling is experiencing a massive revival on the artistic side of watches. The enameling styles are being passed on to the next generation, not only by newer enamel artists but also by younger ones.
Geneva's watchmakers have embraced this revival, which is not surprising, since Geneva was traditionally the place where these arts flourished. The oldest watchmaker in continuous history, Les Cabinotiers, is presenting a unique collection featuring four songbirds.www.hellopanerai.com
