Quinting Watches at Geneva Time Exhibition 2012

Quinting Manufacture d'Horlogerie, the luxurious Swiss and global brand creator of the first and only 100% transparent watch in the world was in the vanguard of the Geneva Time Exhibition 2012 (GTE 2012), from the 15th - 20th January 2012.

The third session of the GTE 2012 was held under the motto "The Art of Making Time ". It was interesting for representatives of the watch industry, collectors and the press because independent manufacturers presented their news without input from the marketing departments, as do the best luxury companies, because they create their products for the sake of pure watchmaking. The main advantage of independent watchmakers for distributors is that they offers unique products that have better specifications than brands belonging to large luxury corporations. The exclusive items created by hand in limited series by great watchmakers, enamelers and artists are also attractive for collectors.

The Quinting was one of the most notable with its watch collection equipped with unique transparent sapphire movements. It presented sophisticated models belonging to the Art Collection.

Quinting 100% transparent watches with a layered sapphire movement are a blank canvas for original art. With our artists's skills and creativity we were able to create hand-painted, stunning one-of-a-kind pieces. The enamel used on Quinting watches provides a different effect than when used on any other. Our watches have internal discs made of sapphire, as eternal as diamonds. The paintings last forever, similar to stained glass one may find in the oldest cathedrals, but all the more durable.

Each unique watch frames an original work of art. The paintings were made using the finest materials. A steady hand, a special paint brush and high quality enamel paint give a colourful new life to Quinting watches.
The unique Quinting movement is composed of a superposition of sapphire discs (the distance between each sapphire measures 0.08 to 0.10 mm) which was a real sensation not only for the media, but also for potential customers.

Due to the complexity of the assembly which requires special optical instruments, microscopes, and surgically clean sterile rooms, it is impossible to copy the Quinting watches.

They are instantly recognisable on the wrist which makes them attractive and popular for buyers who appreciate exclusivity.

Some of the many famous people who wear Quinting watches are Bill Clinton, Kofi Annan, Vladimir Putin, Sepp Blatter, and many in the Swiss Government. "If I wear a Quinting watch, it is because it is the symbol of the Swiss tradition of horology and its future" quote from a Swiss President

This is a watch brand to both treasure and invest in.
