The duality of exceptional simplicity and ultra-complex mechanism

Speake-Marin is a brand led by independent watchmaker Peter Speake-Marin. While Franck Muller, a fellow graduate of the Geneva School of Watchmaking, has achieved unprecedented brand growth despite also being founded by independent watchmakers, Speake-Marin maintains its position as a small maison.


SPEAKE-MARIN Resilience 38mm ¥1,728,000 Purchase here
Stainless steel case: 38mm diameter, enamel dial, approximately 50-hour power reserve, 3 ATM water resistance, automatic winding.

In an era where success as an independent watchmaker and success as a brand are no longer necessarily synonymous, he is directly translating his desires for watchmaking into tangible form.
A prime example is the basic "Resilience" model. It features a high-temperature fired enamel dial and simple Roman numeral indices. The movement it houses is the "Vaucher 3002," which incorporates a distinctive design element into its rotor.


SPEAKE-MARIN Crazy Skull Tourbillon Minute Repeater with Animated Dial: ¥48,600,000
Ti+Pt case: 42mm diameter, minute repeater, tourbillon, 3 ATM water resistance, manual winding.

On the other hand, the "Crazy Skull Tourbillon Minute Repeater" is a masterpiece infused with the watchmaker's pride. The model pictured features a skull-motif automaton (animated dial) that only operates while the repeater is running, significantly increasing the difficulty of its production.
Please enjoy this special timepiece, which you can only find at this once-a-year watch festival.
