Heritage

Founded on a refusal to compromise.

Rejay was established in 2011 by Henri Rejay, formerly Chef d'Atelier at one of the great historic Genevan houses. Frustrated by the industrial pressures placed on modern watchmaking, he opened a workshop of six benches in the old quarter with a single principle: one watch, one owner, one signature.

Rejay workshop
MMXI

The atelier opens

Six benches, one lathe, an eighteen-month backlog before delivery of the first commission.

MMXVI

In-house calibre REJ-A72

The first movement built entirely under our roof, regulated across six positions.

MMXXII

Flying tourbillon REJ-T01

Twelve years in development. Restricted to twelve pieces per annum.

The process

Fourteen weeks. One piece.

01
The conversation

A first meeting — in Genève, in your city, or by correspondence — to understand what the piece should mark.

02
Sketch & specification

Our designer proposes a technical sketch; you refine it in the online atelier or with a master watchmaker.

03
Component sourcing

Metals cast in Le Locle, sapphires cut in Bienne, alligator selected from a single Louisiana tannery.

04
Movement assembly

Bridges hand-bevelled with boxwood pegs. Régulage across six positions over ten days.

05
Dial & case finishing

A single artisan sees a dial through — sunburst, guilloché, enamel or meteorite. Cases hand-polished to mirror.

06
Final control & delivery

Water-resistance tested to depth, worn on the master watchmaker's wrist for seven days, then delivered.
