BREVA GENEVE “Segreto di Lario” Meridian Gold
The Gold of Contemporary Explorers

    • The new Meridian Gold reference from BREVA GENEVE draws collectors of rare timepieces into uncharted territory. 

    • Its slightly matte powder-gold dial – a first for BREVA – evokes the navigation and time-measuring instruments of explorers past. 

    • The exclusive BREVA GENEVE triple retrograde movement, including a 7-day power reserve indication, is housed in the 41 mm Grade 5 titanium cushion-shaped case of the “Segreto di Lario” collection. Measuring 11.10 mm in thickness and water-resistant to 50 metres, the collection was inaugurated in 2025 and already comprises three references. 

    • With Meridian Gold, whose richly nuanced tone carries layered meaning and offers a contemporary interpretation of the spirit of exploration, BREVA GENEVE introduces a defining moment: the hour of orientation — the moment one chooses a course.


On the occasion of Geneva Watch Week 2026 in Geneva, BREVA GENEVE unveils its new reference : “Segreto di Lario” Meridian Gold – its slightly matte powder-gold dial draws inspiration from the scientific instruments that guided generations of explorers.

Conceived on the shores of Lake Como, as a reflection on the time-measuring instruments that once accompanied adventurers and explorers, the “Segreto di Lario” remains a constant invitation to travel — an enduring desire to discover new horizons. In the Meridian Gold version, it draws upon historical aesthetic codes to project into modernity an aesthetic universe shaped by memory, emotion and sensation.

A Dial with an Evocative Tone

The warm, restrained hue of the Meridian Gold dial, set within the 41 mm Grade 5 titanium cushion-shaped case, recalls the patina of the meridian circles of sextants and brass compasses. These instruments transformed light into precise scientific readings calibrated to their time, enabling explorers to determine their coordinates and take the horizon as their guide.

BREVA GENEVE draws here from an aesthetic deeply linked to the history of measurement. The textured dial with soft reflections, the wind rose at 12 o’clock, and the crossed scales of the retrograde indications all reference the visual language of scientific instruments.

“In the Segreto di Lario collection, each tone represents a moment or an atmosphere. The Meridian Gold reference introduces a defining instant: the hour of orientation — the moment one chooses a course. In this new model, every design element engages with the original function of these instruments: to orient, to calibrate, to navigate,” explains Julien Haenny, CEO of BREVA GENEVE.

For purists of classical watchmaking, the tone of the Meridian Gold dial may also evoke German silver (maillechort), the copper-zinc-nickel alloy traditionally used for bridges and mainplates.

A particularly hard, low-oxidation metal, it is significantly more resistant to corrosion than brass and reacts to the skin’s natural oils; renowned for being demanding to work yet prized by connoisseurs for the deep golden patina it develops over time, it recalls the golden age of classical fine watchmaking. 

A Contemporary Measuring Instrument – “Segreto di Lario,” BREVA GENEVE’s Signature Collection

The dials of the “Segreto di Lario” collection are read like instrument panels. The crossed hands — a stylistic and technical signature of BREVA GENEVE — provide a dual retrograde indication of the power reserve via a double time scale.

This double power-reserve gauge, specific to BREVA GENEVE, places available energy in parallel with two levels of precision. The first hand indicates the state of the power reserve over six days. The second hand takes over during the final 24 hours, providing a more detailed reading of the remaining energy.

An Exclusive Mechanical Movement with Triple Retrograde Complication

Created especially for the independent Swiss watchmaking house BREVA GENEVE by master watchmaker Jean-François Mojon, the C101 calibre is a hand-wound mechanical movement (29 jewels, 3 Hz) developed on a Chronode base. Featuring retrograde displays, it indicates hours, minutes and seconds.

The 7-day power reserve is also displayed retrograde, allowing a clearer reading of energy depletion.

Rare Timepieces, Crafted by Exceptional Artisans

Hand-crafted by skilled artisans in keeping with the great Swiss watchmaking tradition, the finishing places particular emphasis on Côtes de Genève, circular satin-brushing and polished chamfers — details that convince discerning collectors and enthusiasts.

“BREVA GENEVE is more than a brand. It is a celebration of the measuring instruments that once accompanied the great explorers. Our instruments of time represent a quest for exclusivity and distinction, offering today’s knowledgeable watch enthusiasts unique horological creations imbued with the character and panache of adventurers past,” notes Julien Haenny, CEO of BREVA GENEVE

BREVA Geneve – CLASSIC Segreto di Lario Titanium Edition

 

BREVA GeneveCLASSIC "Segreto di Lario" 41 mm Titanium and Rose Gold Limited Edition 2025

  BREVA GENEVE – Segreto di Lario 
Slate Grey or Sunset: Exploring the most captivating hours 
of the Dolce Vita 
 

Breva Genève expands its « Segreto di Lario » collection with two new titanium interpretations. Inspired by the most enchanting moments of the day on Lake Como—moonlight and sunset—these limited editions embody a new way of living time, where understated elegance meets unapologetic hedonism.

  Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

Through their "Slate Grey" and "Sunset" dials, they express the art of savoring the moment with style, finesse, and lightness. Produced in extremely limited quantities, these exceptional timepieces retain the brand’s DNA: a discreet spirit, Swiss watchmaking expertise, and an aesthetic inspired by Italian elegance. 

Two new interpretations of the « Segreto di Lario » collection capture the magic of the most captivating hours of day and night on Lake Como

Two dial options — one « Slate Grey », with a deep, moonlit grey hue, and the other « Sunset », evoking the glowing light of dusk — offer complementary styles. Both share the same high standards of execution and finishing. Powered by the bespoke twin-barrel movement with a remarkable 7-day power reserve created by Jean-François Mojon, these rare timepieces are imbued with Swiss craftsmanship and Italian elegance.

Segreto di Lario Slate Grey: elegance by moonlight

The promises of dawn are exhilarating. Early in the morning, on the narrow road that winds along Lake Como, the moon casts a silver glow over the still waters. It’s an invitation to sail—or simply to contemplate. A precious time, outside the world. The nearby mountains lend their grey shadows, enhancing the contrasts in service of light.

Encased in lightweight, modern titanium, the « Segreto di Lario » adopts a distinctive presence. Its refined elegance subtly plays with codes of casual sophistication and discretion. With its vertically brushed finish, the slate grey dial—decorated with silver accents and delicately punctuated by rose gold details like the minute hand, the end of the power reserve gauge, or the brand’s signature—is supremely legible. It constantly plays with the light, much like the deep waters of Lake Como reflecting the mountains above.

Its black alligator leather strap, handcrafted in Italy by Cinturini, reflects an intimate knowledge of formal codes. In a flash, it can become a dress watch, perfect for the most sought-after evenings.

"This piece pays tribute to connoisseurs who value discretion over flash—without ever compromising on refinement. Crafted with the same artisanal excellence as the rose gold version, it combines lightness, technicality, and modern sobriety," says Julien Haenny, CEO of Breva Genève.

Segreto di Lario Sunset: cocktail colours at sundown

Before night fully embraces the landscape, the sun ends its day with a few blazing moments. Bewitching instants, suspended and serene, filled with well-being—not to be missed. When the sky ignites and cocktails take on joyful hues in the glass, it’s time to truly indulge in Lake Como’s Dolce Vita.

  Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

These precious moments are captured in the copper-toned dial of the Sunset version of the «Segreto di Lario» watch ("The Secrets of the Lake" in Italian) by Breva Genève. This edition features an exclusive taupe suede strap, also handcrafted in Italy.

"The dial of this watch has solar reflections. It evokes those warm end-of-day moments on the shores of Lake Como, when you wait for the soft breath of the Bréva wind, a Spritz in hand, enjoying friends, music, and the sound of water lapping against the hull of mahogany boats. It’s a mood. It’s the art of savoring the moment with style, finesse, and lightness," imagines Julien Haenny, CEO of Breva Genève.

Segreto di Lario, the signature collection of Breva Genève

Now available in two new versions, the « Segreto di Lario » timepiece retains the hallmarks of the inaugural « Serenade blue » rose gold edition successfully unveiled in Geneva in April 2025: a 41 mm diameter, 11.10 mm thickness, and 50-meter water resistance.

These two new models stand out with their titanium case, paired with either a « Slate Grey » dial for a discreet, elegant look or a « Sunset » dial evoking the warmth of an aperitivo on the shores of Lake Como.

At the heart of both dials, Breva Genève’s signature overlapping hands display a double retrograde power reserve indicator. Readable like a dashboard, this dual-scale gauge—unique to Breva Genève —tracks energy with two levels of precision: the first hand shows the long-range reserve (6 days), while the second takes over for the final 24 hours, offering a more detailed reading of remaining power.

An exclusive movement created by Jean-François Mojon

Both timepieces are powered by a hand-wound mechanical movement, specially developed for Breva Genève by master watchmaker Jean-François Mojon and his independent manufacture, Chronode.

Featuring 29 jewels and a frequency of 3 Hz, this exclusive calibre stands out with its triple retrograde display — hours, seconds, and a 7-day power reserve — a configuration as rare as it is exceptional in the world of haute horlogerie.

Rare watches, crafted by exceptional artisans

Handcrafted by skilled artisans in accordance with Swiss haute horlogerie tradition, these timepieces feature outstanding finishing details: Geneva stripes, circular satin-brushing, polished bevels. Such attention to craftsmanship is what wins over collectors and seasoned connoisseurs.

The instrument watch for hedonists

As with all Breva Genève timepieces, the new Slate Grey and Sunset interpretations of the Segreto di Lario are true instruments of time, reflecting the philosophy of the independent Swiss watchmaker.

« Breva Genève is more than a brand. It is a celebration of the measuring instruments that once guided great explorers. Our instruments of time are a pursuit of exclusivity and exceptionality—offering today’s discerning collectors unique pieces infused with the spirit and boldness of adventurers past, » says Julien Haenny, CEO of Breva Genève.

Segreto di Lario – The time of secrets

The first creation in the Breva Classic collection, the « Segreto di Lario » watch (meaning «Secret of Lake Como» in Italian) was unveiled in Geneva in April 2025. Beyond its horological sophistication — featuring a retrograde small seconds display and a dual-scale power reserve indicator — this exceptional timepiece is also an invitation to embrace the unique magic of the Lake Como region.

The « secret » it refers to alludes to the seventh day — a timeless journey, so to speak, where the notion of duration fades and one fully indulges in the Dolce Vita of this Italian haven. Like a serene interlude dedicated to pleasure and beauty.

Much like a hidden treasure, these untouched places reflect the timeless charm and discreet elegance of the lake. They echo in perfect harmony with the spirit of the watch.

More than just a timepiece, the «Segreto di Lario» pays tribute to the measuring instruments of the past — the kind of tools explorers once used to understand the natural world around them.

Availability

Designed for everyday wear yet embodying the spirit of fine watchmaking, this new BREVA GENEVE, limited to just 25 pieces, is meticulously crafted to meet the desires of the most discerning collectors.

⦁    The crossed hands: A signature of unique and subtle style : The new timepiece by BREVA GENEVE is instantly recognizable by the distinctive arrangement of its hands.

By adopting « Les Instruments du Temps » as its baseline, the young watchmaking house fully embraces its vision. « BREVA GENEVE is much more than a brand. It is a celebration of the measuring instruments that once accompanied great explorers. Our time instruments embody a quest for exclusivity and exceptional craftsmanship, offering today's discerning watch enthusiasts unique timepieces infused with the character and panache of adventurers from the past, » says Julien Haenny, CEO of BREVA GENEVE.


⦁    Julien Haenny, an experienced enthusiast:
BREVA GENEVE is reborn today under the leadership of Julien Haenny. With a career spanning over
20 years in the watch industry, he has gained a comprehensive and versatile vision of the field, covering creation and development, as well as strategic, commercial, and communication challenges. Former CEO of Anonimo and Vulcain, Julien Haenny has held executive positions at MGI Luxury Group, Jaeger-LeCoultre, and TechnoMarine, and also served as Head of Marketing & Communication at HYT.

⦁    Design, dials, components, or straps: a team of expert partners. For its new development, BREVA GENEVE collaborates with leading figures and artisans in their respective fields. Fabrice Gonet and Olivier Leu, founders of EDGE Design, have reimagined the lines and volumes. The cases are meticulously crafted by AB Concept. The creation of the dials has been entrusted to Cadranor. This realization is completed by the precision of the hands, manufactured by GMG Composants. The leather straps are handcrafted by the Turin-based maison Cinturini. This added soul is also a guarantee of traceability and certification of the origins of each component, allowing the hands that shaped them to be known.

⦁    An international expansion strategy: As an independent brand,
BREVA GENEVE does not intend to limit itself to the intimate circle of collectors and harbors ambitions for development across all markets. Relying on key partners, BREVA GENEVE already has international aspirations. Beyond Switzerland, the brand will be present in Italy, as well as in the United States, Japan, Singapore, and the Middle East.


Blending the spirit of La Dolce Vita from Lake Como with the excellence of Swiss watchmaking expertise, BREVA GENEVE offers lovers of haute horlogerie a hedonistic, refined, and functional timepiece with a high-caliber manufacture movement. Founded in 2010, the independent watch brand remains in symbiosis with nature and embarks on a new chapter in its ascent.

Imbued with the voluptuous charm of Italian elegance and the centuries-old precision of Swiss craftsmanship, BREVA GENEVE timepieces embrace their singularity. A pursuit of exclusivity and exceptionality. Bearing the character and panache of past adventurers, these modern timepieces offer discerning watch enthusiasts exclusive and distinctive horological creations.

Beauty is a state of mind. It resides in the nuances of every detail, especially when executed to perfection. The infinitely small contributes to the vast, at every moment. Since watchmaking is the science of meticulousness in pursuit of the absolute, BREVA GENEVE is dedicated to carrying the breath of precision forward.

Instrument watches do not have to be rugged to be effective. BREVA GENEVE embraces the choice of offering hedonistic connoisseurs a timepiece with character, easily wearable in everyday life, featuring practical functions such as its unique and unprecedented dual power reserve indication, and useful complications, all while showcasing haute horlogerie finishes and a dedicated manufacture movement, housed in an elegant rose gold case. The best of both worlds.

The Breva, the identity wind of Lake Como.

The sweetness of life on Lake Como would certainly not be the same without this regular and gentle southern breeze coming from the mountains. Appreciated by sailing enthusiasts, it is born from the natural thermal effects of the lake’s environment and gives life to the entire region. More than its name, this joyful, gentle, and subtle Italian wind gives its breath to BREVA GENEVE.

Spiritus subtilitatis: the breath of precision becomes a motto.

Precision has many faces. That of excellence in the shaping and finishing of components. That of rigor in the design, assembly, and adjustment of the movement. That of mastery and imagination in refining the lines of the design. 


Precision is a subtle breath that is not only summarized in equations. Proud of its dual Italian and Swiss heritage, BREVA GENEVE returns to the roots of the precision of language and adopts a Latin motto to more universally and precisely affirm its ambition: to make the inspiring breath of precision and subtlety shine.

The Instruments of Time

Beyond their naturalistic inspiration, the watches of BREVA GENEVE carry within their DNA a particular philosophy of measuring the passage of time. An aspiration to surpass the mere status of precision timekeepers to embrace a story even broader than that of horology. Through their design, which combines classic and innovative watch complications with practical indicators, such as the barometer, they pay tribute to the measuring instruments used by explorers, discoverers, travelers, or adventurers of the past. Devices that have always been at the forefront of technical developments of their time, with a demand for reliability, robustness, and efficiency.

Collectors of these rare and exclusive objects know that in past eras, functionality was never devoid of quality craftsmanship, with fine finishes and a concern for aesthetics and workmanship. BREVA GENEVE embraces this conviction and pays particular attention to the finishing details of its watches, not only to please today’s aesthetes but also to fully honor the precision instruments of the adventurers of yesteryear, both in substance and form. By adopting this flair inspired by the courage and audacity of explorers, the sophisticated timepieces created by BREVA GENEVE are more than just watches: they are Instruments of Time.

The taste of italian elegance

There is no need to try to translate the idea of Sprezzatura to adopt this delightful form of Italian elegance, which feeds on classic codes to give current interpretations with ease and a touch of nonchalance. Proud of their Swiss character, with all that this entails in terms of the pursuit of perfection and uncompromising standards, the watches of BREVA GENEVE gladly embrace the flexibility and refinement of Italian elegance to bring, in everyday life, an added touch of suave joie de vivre.

The story of BREVA GENEVE began one summer evening in 2010. A young entrepreneur traveling along the shores of Lake Como, captivated by the magic of these places steeped in history and allure, began to dream of a different kind of watch that would combine the reading of the passage of time with other information to better understand natural elements. It was during this time that he discovered “La Breva,” the southern breeze that gently caresses this lake, imparting a sense of freedom and mystery. More than just a wind, La Breva became a muse. The essence of the brand's inspiration, it gave it its identity.

Understanding that behind this name lies a soul, the instigators of the revival of BREVA GENEVE have returned to the roots of the brand, on the shores of Lake Como. The magic distilled by the unique atmosphere of this grand natural site, where the memories of a golden age continue to resonate and which is also the remarkable stage of an Italian joie de vivre, immediately takes hold, and a new ambition is born for BREVA GENEVE. Rooted in the timeless elegance of this mythical place, the brand is now focused on recreating the spirit of Dolce Vita and the discreet luxury that marked Italy’s great years. With its majestic villas, sumptuous gardens, and shimmering waters, Lake Como has possessed a cinematic charm for decades, attracting the most glamorous and influential figures in the world.

BREVA GENEVE draws inspiration from this rare beauty to imagine watches that, like Lake Como, reveal their splendor in subtlety and finesse. The brand's creations celebrate this art of living, made of sophistication and discretion. They are aimed at discerning connoisseurs and knowledgeable collectors who share the quest for a modern horological expression that respects tradition. They have a taste for authenticity and beauty.

« BREVA GENEVE is much more than a brand. It is a celebration of the measuring instruments that once accompanied the great explorers. It is also a tribute to the innovative and audacious character of the first creations of Breva, in 2010, when its name was already distinguished by unprecedented complications. Original, with a traditional side, these creations embody Italian charm and Swiss craftsmanship. These are the two pillars structuring Breva's identity. BREVA GENEVE represents a quest for exclusivity and exception, offering today’s discerning watch enthusiasts unique timepieces, imbued with the character and flair of past adventurers, » says Julien Haenny.

After two years as Head of Marketing & Communication for HYT, an independent contemporary high-end watch brand, Julien Haenny decided to take on the BREVA GENEVE adventure with renewed enthusiasm. His vision is clear: to revive a world of luxury and refinement inspired by the timeless elegance of Lake Como. A strong inspiration that lies at the origins of BREVA GENEVE.

The Breva Classic Collection « Segreto di Lario », a secret to share.

The Breva Classic collection opens with the « Segreto di Lario model » (Secret of Lake Como in Italian). It is an invitation to give the keys to understand what makes the region of Lake Como so uniquely magical. This exclusive edition of 25 pieces is distinguished by a 41mm diameter, 11.10mm thick 18K 5N+ rose gold cushion-shaped case, water-resistant to 50 meters, and features a retrograde small seconds display as well as a double power reserve scale.

This « secret » echoes the seventh day, evoking a journey outside of time, where one loses all sense of duration and fully savors the Dolce Vita of the region. Like a timeless interlude dedicated to pleasure and beauty. Like a treasure carefully preserved, these places spared from prying eyes embody the timeless beauty and discreet elegance of the lake. They resonate in perfect harmony with the spirit of the model. More than just a timepiece, the «Segreto di Lario» model pays tribute to the instruments of the past, recalling the tools with which explorers understood the natural world around them. Inspired by the equipment of those who dared to go beyond boundaries, the watch reinvents the power reserve complication by introducing the dimension of time at the heart of its design.

The « Segreto di Lario », water-resistant to 50 meters, is also distinguished by its rose gold cushion-shaped case. Designed to perfectly embrace the wrist, it strikes a balance between comfort and style. The 18K 5N+ rose gold ardillon buckle on its hand-stitched leather strap aligns with the model’s spirit of refinement. The sapphire crystals treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides improve the readability of the functions while allowing for contemplation of the depth and exquisite details of the dial. The high-quality finishes, including circular satin surfaces, polished chamfers, and meticulous engravings, reflect craftsmanship that connoisseurs will appreciate.

« We developed an exclusive power reserve display for BREVA GENEVE that consists of a double retrograde time scale: one for the total 6-day power reserve duration, and on the opposite side, a display for the remaining 24 hours. The power reserve indication from the base movement is split into two kinematic chains, each carrying a dedicated cam. Two rake feelers, one per cam, transmit the information to each hand, and two hairsprings maintain tension to ensure constant contact between the cam and feeler. This original 7-day power reserve reading is both intuitive and precise » explains Jean-François Mojon in detail.

Every detail is meticulously crafted to evoke the flawless precision of Swiss craftsmanship, meeting the expectations of the most discerning connoisseurs. Its exceptional finishes include a sandblasted case back, circular satin finish, polished chamfers, and Côtes de Genève, reflecting the expertise and care taken at every stage of its design. These elements highlight the craftsmanship of master watchmaker Jean-François Mojon and Chronode, and their ability to blend tradition and innovation. The bespoke solutions developed by Chronode stand out for their modernity and exclusivity.
