It simply all
started with this.
Reference number: P11.011-A01
Prelude Hand Wound. The very distinguishable lithographed two-tone Staudt-blue dial with a small seconds hand at six o'clock, combined with a brown alligator strap. This is simply the beginning of our watchmaking heritage - our classic. For over a decade, every watch in our collection is an evolution of this timepiece.

Sheer. Elegance.
The curves of the Prelude Hand Wound case are made to be understated. Due to its arched side profile, the 10.32mm height of the case appears pretty sleek. The case is crafted from stainless steel. It is fully polished, however, the sides are manually brushed horizontally.

Into the mind of the maker. The Prelude Automatic is the thinnest watch I ever made, it easily hides underneath your cuff. It has a very simplistic look, however, there are a lot of understated details. It is possible to have your personal text printed on the dial, to make sure the watch reflects your story.
Into the mind of the maker. This is my first watch ever. I made it during my classical music studies in Italy. Just for myself, I didn't had any intention to make more than one. Now, a decade later, it is the foundation of every model in the Prelude collection. More Staudt it wouldn't get.
We offer a dozen of variations. Let us make it yours.
We'll not give it away easily. You will get your timepiece packed in an impressive box that lasts a lifetime, which you can convert into a collectors box for four watches.
