Switzerland is the land of exquisite watches and Maurice de Mauriac in Zurich is the creme de la creme of the same. The watches manufactured by this company are timelessly classic and most pieces are limited editions. Designer Daniel Dreifuss believes in the idea of ‘everything or nothing’ and seeks to bring life to his creations instead of merely reinventing blueprints. The range includes everything from diamond encrusted dials to stainless steel designs and you might just have to pay a massive sum of 8000 CHF for a timepiece, depending on your choice. Every chronometer is exclusive and is manufactured using superlative technology. These watches are definitely meant for blessed wrists.

Visiting the Maurice de Mauriac atelier in Zurich is an unforgettable luxurious experience. While you can obviously lay your hands on watches made out of rare metals and precious gems, you will also find miniature cars and coffee table books about the fine things in life. Only the affluent can afford the joy of having this establishment create a customised watch for them. Located in one of the posh neighbourhoods of Zurich, this store cum studio is modern, minimalistic and downright enticing. Daniel is a seasoned artist who will delight you with his dexterity.
