Create your desktop watch
With a manufactured mechanical movement
The mechanical movement is manufactured. It has been developed by our company so that it comes to life in your hands. Its design was conceived with the support of one of France's Meilleurs Ouvriers and watchmaking teachers from the prestigious Morteau school. With a power reserve of fourteen days and a balance frequency of 18,000 vibrations per hour, its mechanical movement will indicate hours, minutes and seconds. Create your own desk watch and bring these 233 components to life!
Watchmaking elegance
Between tradition and modern allure
Its hourglass-like appearance, symbolizing the mastery of time, its visible movement that can be contemplated, and the technical prowess of its alternative stature embody the very essence of exceptional watchmaking.
The Maison Alcée movement is similar to that of a wristwatch. Thus, creating your own desk watch will enable all enthusiasts to understand the mechanism of a watch on a larger scale.

With the right watchmaking tools
Watchmaking is often referred to as the craft of a thousand tools. Put yourself in the watchmaker's shoes, take possession of all the tools needed to build your clock: a watchmaker's magnifier, tweezers, screwdrivers with unannealed beryllium copper blades, fingertips, a membrane box, a chamois and an oil pick, then create your desk watch.
These watchmaking tools have been carefully designed to turn the assembly of the clock into an exceptional and educational moment for every curious person.
