An independent watchmaker from France, Arthur Marchegay studied at Lycée Edgar Faure, one of the most prestigious watchmaking schools in the country.

Since the school opened in 1987, it has been producing skilled technicians for some of the world’s best-known Swiss watch brands as well as smaller companies throughout Europe.

He earned the Diplôme des Métiers d’Art for his school project – a self-winding tourbillon “Sirius” with a meteorite dial.
