Legare Haute Horlogerie
ABOUTLEGARE
From Latin, "to bequeath"
A name that speaks to our purpose. Asking the question "What if?", we are dedicated to tracking down some of the most important horological achievements that were never introduced to the market and bringing them to the modern world.
OUR MISSION
In Search of Lost Time
Contemporary realization of forgotten horological possibilities.
We are horological archaeologists, uncovering forgotten possibilities and bringing them to life through contemporary watchmaking.
