Pure Swiss watchmaking. Nothing unnecessary.

The Dubois et fils DBF008-04 Swiss Craftsmanship was created for collectors who understand that true elegance rarely asks for attention.

The white dial gives the watch a calm and understated presence — balanced, refined and deeply rooted in the traditions of classic Swiss horology.

Inside beats an authentic AS 1985 automatic movement manufactured during the 1960s by legendary Swiss movement maker Adolph Schild SA.

A surviving calibre from the golden era of Swiss mechanical watchmaking.

Built decades before this watch existed.
Preserved for years.
Restored in Switzerland for a second life on the wrist.

Only 33 pieces worldwide will ever exist.


About Adolph Schild SA

Founded in Grenchen in 1896, Adolph Schild SA (AS) became one of the most respected movement manufacturers of the twentieth century.

Its calibres powered countless Swiss watches before industrial standardisation transformed mechanical watchmaking and before quartz changed the industry forever.

Like many historic Swiss manufactures, AS disappeared during the Quartz Crisis of the 1970s.

Today, surviving AS movements from the 1960s are increasingly appreciated by collectors who value authenticity, mechanical warmth and preserved horological heritage.


What Connoisseurs Appreciate

Collectors appreciate the DBF008-04 because it feels honest.

No artificial vintage effects.
No exaggerated design language.
No unnecessary complexity.

Just the quiet pleasure of wearing a preserved Swiss calibre that already existed decades before this watch was assembled.

Modern movements may offer perfection.
Historic AS calibres offer character.

For experienced enthusiasts, that feeling is immediately recognisable.


Some watches try to imitate history. This one lived through it.
