Description

Discover the art of Swiss horology in Biel, where centuries of watchmaking tradition meet exceptional precision and refined design. Step into this heritage and create your own timepiece, taking home not just a watch, but a piece of Swiss craftsmanship.

Your day begins with a private transfer from Bern to Biel, the beating heart of Switzerland’s watch industry and a region where timekeeping is not only a profession, but a cultural legacy shaped over generations.

Upon arrival, immerse yourself in the fascinating world of horology at the City of Time. Explore the Omega Museum and Planet Swatch, where the evolution of timekeeping unfolds through iconic design and technical innovation. Each exhibition offers a deeper insight into the artistry and engineering behind Swiss watches.

Take a relaxed break with lunch at a local restaurant, enjoying a moment to unwind in the heart of the city.

This is followed by the highlight of the day. At the Watch Academy, step into the role of watchmaker. Guided by skilled professionals, you are introduced to the delicate mechanics of a timepiece. From selecting components to assembling and adjusting each element, take part in every stage of creation and craft your own watch. Conclude the experience with a celebratory aperitif, a certificate, and a truly unique reward — your own Swiss Made watch, created with your own hands.

Return to Bern with more than a souvenir, but a lasting expression of craftsmanship, time, and personal achievement. As your private driver brings you comfortably back to your hotel, relax and reflect on the experience of the day.
