Right this moment, my visitor is Sébastien Chaulmontet. Right this moment, Sébastien is the Director of Innovation and Advertising and marketing at Sellita. His profession in watches has additionally included stints with La Joux-Perret, Arnold & Son, and Angelus. However he began a collector, significantly of classic chronographs – he even wrote a e-book about them and is engaged on one other. In addition to his full-time job at Sellita, he has additionally simply launched his personal model, Albishorn, to create small batches of what he calls “imaginary classic” watches, which we speak about throughout our dialog. Albishorn’s first launch is the Maxigraph, a regatta timer in collaboration with Massena Lab.
I’ve recognized about Sébastien for years, however solely had the pleasure of assembly him final month in Geneva. He is as passionate and educated as they arrive, and I loved our dialog – I hope you do, too. Thanks as all the time for listening to Hodinkee Radio.
