Since 2012, Speake-Marin has initiated a movement strategy to fully develop and assemble proprietary movements in-house. To do so, Mrs Christelle Rosnoblet has invested in a workshop based in the Neuchâtel region in Switzerland. The workshop is able to develop new movements from scratch thanks to its Research & development department.
One & TwoFor this collection, it was a choice to have no indexes… The Speake-Marin Creation Studio wanted to have a refined and uncluttered design where the movement plays the dial role. As Speake-Marin draws inspiration from architecture and design, the creation studio decided to design a collection with three dimensions dial, which underlines the watch complication. It lets us discover the key parts of the timepiece evolving all along the day through different lights and shadows. Last but not least, it demonstrates Speake-Marin fine watchmaking skills: integrated micro-rotor, small wheels, rubies, finishing and sun burst decorations.
Haute HorlogerieFor the Haute Horlogerie collection, Speake-Marin works with an architectural approach and looks for depth and transparency. Speake-Marin pushes the limits of the craftsmanship to keep reinventing exclusive pieces that haven’t been seen elsewhere. The Speake-Marin great complications are twisting and challenging the traditional fine watchmaking codes: first Minute Repeater complication seen in a full sapphire case, Double Vertical Tourbillon with rate equalizer, openworked movements with high level of finishing and engravings.
VintageLike the refurbishment trend in the design furniture or car industry, Speake-Marin proposes to make old movement revive in new designs. The London Chronograph collection is a recurrent watch collection concept that re-edits iconic vintage movements every year. A tribute paid to fine watchmaking heritage. The purpose of this collection is to remind people how great is the watch industry know-how in terms of movement development. The great movements from the past keep inspiring designers and engineers of today.
Art seriesEngraving is part of the Speake-Marin DNA and the purpose of the Art Series Collections is to keep developing art timepieces, which illustrate the favourite Speake-Marin topics such as its long lasting friendship with Asia, or its brand commitment to social environmental causes. The Art Series Collection demonstrates Speake-Marin craftsmanship and creativity: a reminder of our attachment to traditional fine watchmaking know-how.
In our workshop in the Neuchâtel region, Speake-Marin has its own Research & Development department, which creates and prototypes exclusive movements from scratch. Then, the watchmakers build and assemble the timepieces in the rigorous Swiss watchmaking tradition where know-how and keywords are the keywords.

Do you know why our movements are called “SMA”? S for Speake, M for Marin and A for Automatic, because Speake-Marin developes automatic movement only. The first one has been launched in 2017: the SMA01 with integrated micro rotor at 9:00, barrel at 5:00 and small seconds at 1:30. #inhousemovement #workshop #speakemarin #timepiece #Openworked #movement #swissmade #switzerland #speakemarinwatches #geneve #geneva #hautehorlogerie #bellehorlogerie #beautifultimepiece #beautifultimepieces #finewatchmaking
