Hazemann & Monnin is a young independent brand founded by French watchmakers Alexandre Hazemann and Victor Monnin, winners of the 2023 F.P. Journe Young Talent Competition. Classmates at the Morteau watchmaking school, the duo bonded over a shared work ethic and a drive to push beyond classroom assignments. Their capstone project\u2014a \u201cschool watch\u201d combining a sonnerie au passage with an instantaneous jumping hour\u2014became the foundation for their debut: a 20-piece, two-variant series that launched the brand.<\/p>\r\n
Operating from a self-built Swiss workshop and a small team, the pair aims for deep vertical integration, developing their own HM-01 movement with original gear calculations and a 50-hour power reserve. Each watch features a 39.5mm steel case and dial-side theater: jumping hours at 12, minutes at 3, seconds at 9, and a long circumferential gong struck on the hour by a black-polished hammer. Two distinct aesthetics reflect complementary strengths\u2014Hazemann\u2019s more technical, openworked design and Monnin\u2019s more artistic direction with stone dials\u2014while finishing emphasizes large frosted plates, deep anglage, and thoughtful architecture.<\/p>","link":"https:\/\/k2luxury.ch\/watches\/watch-brand\/hazemann-monnin\/","name":"Hazemann & Monnin","slug":"hazemann-monnin","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":0,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"yoast_head":"\n
