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

Begin your day with a private transfer from your hotel in Basel to Biel, for a day dedicated to the craft of Swiss watchmaking.

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of timekeeping in the City of Time. With exhibits such as the Omega Museum and Planet Swatch, gain profound insights into the evolution of watchmaking and the evolution of both brands.

Pause for a relaxed break in the city, enjoying a refined Swiss lunch while reflecting on the craftsmanship and heritage you’ve encountered so far.

Next, the adventure continues at the Watch Academy, just a short journey away, and the highlight of your watchmaking experience. Here, skilled watchmakers guide you as you create your own personalized timepiece, taking you through each step of the process from selecting components to making precise, hands-on adjustments. Enjoy the quiet satisfaction of assembling a watch with your own hands, before ending the experience with a celebratory aperitif, along with your certificate and a small gift.

Leave with a Swiss Made watch you built yourself, and unwind on a comfortable return transfer back to your hotel by your private driver. The memories of the day are crafted into your watch and will stay with you forever.
