| Maxence Van Der Bauwede is a private label watchmaker. Having been born into a family
of jewelers and clockmakers, the design and manufacture of exclusive and complex
prototypes of watches and his passion for it are, indeed, inborn. After all, the family
business has been passed from father to son ever since 1890.
To preserve his family's reputation for excellence and quality, Maxence makes only 100% Swiss made quartz and automatic watches, meticulously choosing the finest components that offer the highest level of precision performance and accuracy. Assembled by hand in the VDB production workshop in Fleurier, Switzerland, Van Der Bauwede watches are subject to the closest scrutiny and attention to detail. The signature VDB coat of arms and the name of its creator is engraved on every timepiece. Bands, clasps, and cases are personalized for each VDB owner, a privilege that is never associated with a production timepiece. Each Van Der Bauwede watch is unique in itself, yet the watchmaker offers six elegant collections of varying styles from dress to sport chronographs, all featuring tonneau cases, including a "mini" collection sized for women. |
His creations are stunning
achievements of technical mastery, stylish presentation and pure design. Van Der Bauwede
collections are almost always produced by special order. The watches of Van Der Bauwede or
VDB, as the watchmaking dynasty is often referred to, are largely the property of private
collectors and individuals of stature.
