1957
Birth in Geneva. From his earliest childhood, ANTOINE PREZIUSO takes a passionate interest in watchmaking.

1973
ANTOINE PREZIUSO passes his entrance exam and is admitted to the Geneva Watchmaking School. He trains as a watch-repairer, specialising as a practising watchmaker and achieving full mastery of all the tricks of the trade. After five years of brilliant studies, he graduated with the top results of the entire school.

1978
ANTOINE PREZIUSO is hired by the largest and most exclusive watch company in Geneva, Patek Philippe, where he earns great appreciation for his professional skills and his serious-minded approach to his work in the horological complications workshop.

1980
The most prestigious watch auctioneering house, Antiquorum, asks ANTOINE PREZIUSO to run its first ever collector’s watch restoration and appraisal workshop. He thereby broadens his knowledge of history and of the art of horology through the centuries, by working on the world’s most prestigious watches.

1981
By now a recognised horological expert, ANTOINE PREZIUSO opens his first antique horology workshop in Geneva. His outstanding reputation leads major collectors, great watch brands and the Geneva Watchmaking Museum to entrust him with the restoration of some extremely rare pieces. A member of the Cabinotiers de Genève association, ANTOINE PREZIUSO participates in the creation of 10 commemorative watches for the anniversary of the Geneva Watchmaking Museum. The wealth of experience thus acquired naturally leads him towards the actual creation of highly complicated watches.

1989
He is commissioned by one of the leading names in watchmaking, Breguet, to take up an unprecedented challenge: the development and production of a series of the world’s most complicated watches: minute repeater perpetual calendar wristwatches. After two years of feasibility studies, research and development, the first such wristwatch, accompanied by a pocket-watch in an elm burr presentation box, is sold at auction by Antiquorum in Geneva.

1991
The first ANTOINE PREZIUSO watch is introduced: a minute repeater perpetual calendar
equipped with a patented system involving activating the strike mechanism via the rotating
bezel of the watch case. This model carries the prestigious “Poinçon de Genève“ quality label. While continuing to create prestigious watches bearing his signature, he also specialises in producing complicated watches for various renowned brands. 1996 ANTOINE PREZIUSO exhibits his own creations at the Basel Watch and Jewellery Show, on the booth of the Académie des Horlogers Créateurs Indépendants (AHCI). His work is quickly recognised and he receives an offer to distribute his watches in Japan. Ever since, his collection of complication watches has been regularly shown throughout the world and is one of the most prestigious in the field.

1998
He is invited by Cartier to present his latest creations at the Salon International de la Haute
Horlogerie (SIHH) in Geneva.

mechanism.
