Vianney Halter Watches

Vianney Halter is an independent watchmaker who founded the watch manufactory in 1998.

However, for Vianney it was pretty boring job, and he decided to leave Paris to go to Bangkok and open a business. But the meeting with Francois-Paul Journet forced to think about the decision. Francois, who organized the factory at Saint-Croix, Vianna offered a job. Alter then decided to open its brand and registered company Janvier SA (In honor of the French watchmaker Antide Janvier, who lived in the 18-19 centuries), engaged in execution of orders of major brands such as Franck Muller, Audemars Piguet, Jaquet Droz, Maboussin, Breguet.
