The Berthoud watch, by Mathieu Blanchard, is freely designed, drawing inspiration from the most prodigious master watchmakers the field has ever known. This model is thus named in homage to Ferdinand Bethoud: a chronometer manufacturer who made history with his fabulous creations, and in particular his marine clocks which, in the 18th century, guided the ships of the kings of France towards new horizons.

The grain of the wood, like a handprint, is unique, making each watch entirely different. Each watch is crafted with great care to ensure it is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Take it to the next level and make the experience even more special with a personalized engraving on the back of the watch.

The durability of a product depends mainly on its materials. For Mathieu Blanchard Signature watches , we use materials that are durable over time.

For the glass, we use sapphire crystal: This is the most commonly used glass on today's high-end watches. Sapphire crystal is 10 times harder than mineral glass and 4 times harder than acrylic glass. It is virtually impossible to scratch except by diamond, which is even harder. This glass is developed in a laboratory.

For our watch cases and straps, we've made a huge effort to produce using sustainable materials like natural, sustainably sourced wood and matte-finished stainless steel. This finish provides visual durability, as it shows much less wear and tear than a polished finish.

Loving nature, it is often for us a source of calm, comfort and very often the starting point of our jewelry collections &  Accessories. We are proud to offer watches made from high-quality, sustainable materials. Our primary material is wood, which offers significant environmental benefits over other comparable materials: low carbon emissions during the production process and the biodegradable nature of the materials.

Our watches are handcrafted with great precision by a highly experienced team. Each watch is naturally unique and made from real wood such as walnut and oak (sourced from whiskey barrels).
