Watchmaker

Stéphane Widmer is Head of Development and Watchmaking at MCT. Originally from La Chaux de Fonds, he attended the watchmaking college there for 4 years and continued his studies for another 2 years in the famous Horological Museum, Musée International d'Horlogerie (MIH), in the town.

On finishing his studies at the Museum, Stéphane felt it was important to experience the wider world of watchmaking and his journey took him first to Aspreys in London, working on restoration projects and then to New York, where he worked in the after sales department of Vacheron Constantin.

Returning to his native Switzerland, Stéphane joined Parmigiani and over 12 years became team leader of their special projects division at Vaucher SA, where he helped design and construct many amazing one-off pieces and strictly limited editions of watches and clocks.
