Visionary Watchmaker Dominique Loiseau Joins Girard-Perregaux’s Manufacturing Team

Iconic luxury Swiss watch brand Girard-Perregaux has added legendary watchmaker, Dominique Loiseau, to its prestigious manufacturing team.

 Dominique Loiseau has worked at the summit of complex horology for more than 30 years and is the creator of remarkable timepieces such as the six Montres de Sables, the Rose de Temps clock, the Renaissance or Capriccio pocket watches and the famed Blancpain 1735 wristwatch. His latest timepiece, the Loiseau 1f4, is the most complicated automatic watch in the industry with eight patents in its movement. A restorer of collectors’ timepieces, artisan and teacher at the International Museum of Watchmaking in La Chaux-de-Fonds, where the Girard-Perregaux manufacture is located, Loiseau is no stranger to the brand’s historical heritage and innovations.

Loiseau was brought in by the Sowind Group (Girard-Perregaux and JeanRichard) during the last quarter of 2011 in order to strengthen the brand’s “think tank”. He will not only bring a new and fresh perspective to the brand but has also taken on the project of developing new complications and movements.
