By Chance I Became an independent Watchmaker with Vianney Halter - Part I

Vianney Halter (@vianneyhalter ) has been creatively, financially, and spiritually independent as a watchmaker since he made the Antiqua. I caught up with him at the AHCI in Geneva during Watches & Wonders 2024 to discuss Vianney's journey in the watchmaking industry and his decision to start his own company. Vianney shares his experiences working with François-Paul Journe and the challenges he faced as an independent creator. 


We talk about the importance of independent watchmaking and the unique stories behind these brands. Vianney discusses his journey as an independent watchmaker and the meaning of independent watchmaking. He shares how he started his career by chance and became hooked on watchmaking. Vianney talks about the challenges of being an independent watchmaker and the importance of selling his work to survive. He also highlights the role of the internet in making it easier to share his creations and connect with people around the world. 

We begin to get into the story of Vianney buying and playing his piano, which had a tremendous influence on his watchmaking which we discuss in Part II of this video.
