Dentelle

Combining the pure vision and exceptional talents of renowned Genevan dial maker Atelier Olivier Vaucher with the insightful passion of watchmaker Olivier Gaud, TAOS was born in 2024, unveiling a novel concept in watchmaking : Watches combining multiple exceptional artistic crafts, each a unique masterpiece crafted in the Geneva workshop, to create extraordinary dials that spring to life through intricately decorated mechanical movements.

Each watch is one-of-a-kind, each dial a work of art. The culmination of years of experience, patience and creativity amassed by the more than 40 artisan-craftspeople at Atelier Olivier Vaucher.

The TAOS Dentelle watch pays tribute to the Swiss lace of Saint-Gall, a symbol of refinement and tradition. Crafted with extreme precision, each lace thread captures the essence of this ancient art. TAOS translates this delicacy and complexity onto its dial, creating a piece of unmatched finesse and sophistication, honoring the timeless elegance of craftsmanship.

The self-winding Automatic double-barrel winding shown in parallel VOP318, developed exclusively by Télôs (La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland) for TAOS is entirely hand engraved by the engravers of the Atelier Vaucher. This watch's pattern, requiring more than a hundred hours of engraving is inspired by draped fabric, lending sculptural elegance to every bridge.
