History
Alain Silberstein started his company with his wife Sylvie in Paris in 1990. He is an architect and designer and then started to create extravagant watches, having his own style, color and aesthetic inspired by the German Bauhaus movement. His unorthodox style brings a fresh air of creativity in the world of Swiss watch industry making his timepieces unique.
