A Legacy of Time

The Story of the INDEPENDENTS Boutique

Our story begins with the renowned Ineichen Auction House, a name synonymous with rare watches, and the celebration of horological history

The Ineichen Legacy

Founded in 1973 by Peter Ineichen in Zurich, Switzerland, Ineichen Auctioneers quickly became a global authority in the auctioning of luxury watches. Known for its meticulous curation and dedication to preserving the legacy of fine watchmaking, Ineichen brought some of the world’s most coveted timepieces to collectors and enthusiasts. From vintage Rolexes to rare Patek Philippes, the auction house became a beacon for those who cherished the art of horology.

The Birth of the
INDEPENDENTS
Boutique

As the auction house grew, so did the vision to create a space where the love for the art of independent watchmaking could be celebrated beyond the auction room. The idea was simple yet profound: to establish a boutique that would not only showcase exceptional timepieces by independent watchmakers, but also offer an immersive experience for watch lovers. Thus, our boutique was conceived—a natural extension of the Ineichen legacy, born out of decades of expertise and a commitment to excellence.

A New Chapter in
Horology

More than just a retail space, our boutique was designed to be a destination for those who appreciate the finer things in life. We created a welcoming environment where collectors, enthusiasts, and newcomers alike could enjoy various VIP events featuring live classical music concerts and gourmet meals. Our lounge, inspired by the elegance of the auction house, offers a serene setting to admire timepieces, share stories, and immerse oneself in the world of horology.
