LADOIRE<br />

STAND C9<br />

www.ladoire.ch<br />

Rock your <strong>Time</strong> experience !<br />

Since 2007, the <strong>Geneva</strong>-based House of Ladoire, under its “Helvetic Mechanic” label,<br />

has been playing with contradictions and associating extremes within atypical creations<br />

featuring cutting-edge complications and sophisticated aesthetics.<br />

Driven by Lionel Ladoire, the design of these<br />

objects is defined, built and refined in tune with a<br />

rock/underground mood inspired by contemporary<br />

culture and its protagonists, such as Jean-Paul<br />

Gaultier, Andy Warhol and Philippe Starck.<br />

HELVET MECHANIC<br />

Ladoire Genève timepieces bearing the “Helvet<br />

Mechanic” label adhere to the most rigorous<br />

criteria when it comes to Swiss craftsmanship and<br />

knowhow, while also defying the rules of traditional<br />

watchmaking and advocating the deconstruction of<br />

time displays.<br />

58 - GENEVA TIME EXHIBITION 2011<br />

The components in Ladoire’s mechanical<br />

timepieces are entirely produced by craftsmen in<br />

the best Swiss workshops, while all movements<br />

are designed, developed, manufactured, tested and<br />

lovingly pampered at Ladoire’s Swiss Manufacture.<br />

Stemming from an unbridled imagination and<br />

a decidedly offbeat mind-set – symbolised by<br />

the signature spider’s web engraved on the GMT<br />

wheel and ratchet of the RGT – creations by<br />

Ladoire Genève suggest a new relationship with<br />

time reflecting a resolutely avant-garde approach<br />

to Fine Watchmaking.
