These watches were built around original mechanical reminder movements that were updated in 2003.

The transparent back case shows the inner beauty and craftsmanship of these historical movements.
The history of this luxury watch brand begins in Tramelan, Switzerland. In 1902, Armand Nicolet, himself from the dynasty of watchmaking, created a pink gold pocket watch with a full calendar and chronograph function. The philosophy behind the luxurious watch band was to create watch assemblies from scratch with amazing attention to detail. When Mr. Nicolet died in 1939, his son Willie continued to create luxury watches in this way, while the quartz watch revolution in the 1970s, when the classic mechanical watch industry was in recession.
The Armand Nicolet brand was acquired by Rolando Braga, and by 1990 it was again producing beautiful watches with an original passion for detail and craftsmanship. Today, this luxury watch brand still creates stunning watches with very detailed artisan details in the recently renovated but original workshops of the Nicolet family. The unique watches in the collection of Armand Nicolet watches are among the best anywhere.
