Portrain of Nicolas Besuchet at his workbench.

Nicolas Besuchet

Swiss. Immersed in the world of watchmaking as child, I've always been drawn to motion and the dreams it fosters. Initially mentored by an artist, I trained as a mechanical engineer. Completing my studies in Japan, I then worked for a Swiss train builder.

Artistically, I wish to evoke wonder.

Engineering-wise, there is a sense of beauty in taming complexity.

Building-wise, my designs prefer leveraging clever solutions and widespread online manufacturing services. This, allowing for a workshop with minimalistic tooling. It's not about expensive tools, I discovered. Rather, it's about skills and passion.

Currently based in Prague. Enjoying life with my dearest wife Klara.
