Few people know the souls of things, and even fewer can make these souls perceptible and tangible to others. Maurice can. If you also desire to belong to this chosen group, you must come to Maurice. “à Maurice”, from Maurice de Mauriac, is a meeting place for people who want to feel and experience the soul of mechanical watches. You’ll disassemble a Unitas pocket movement – the device that powers a manual watch – and then reassemble it under the watchful eye of a private watchmaker.

  • Maurice de Mauriac, Zurich, Switzerland
    Your experience starts right at our Atelier in the middle of Zurich. We, the Dreifuss Family warmly welcome you at our very unique Atelier. Firstly, we will tell you the interesting history of the Maurice de Mauriac brand adventure, explaining you everything from the beginning. We give you insights on how we work and how we produce the very own style of watches. This is followed by us giving you an introduction into the Swiss Watch Industry to learn how it all started. (15 - 30minutes) Then the main part of the attraction starts as you will sit down with our well-educated watchmaker, who shows you in detail how a mechanical watch works. Next, it`s YOUR turn to assemble parts of the watch. You will wear an original watchmaker dress and a magnifying watch glass to do so while our watchmaker is overviewing the process. Photos are allowed to be taken throughout the whole time. In the end, you all receive a gift to remember this exclusive watch workshop.

The business is uniquely cool. The advice outstanding and also the conversation very exciting and enriching. The selection of watches and accessories as well as the individual composition of your own watch are simply unique. In Züri, from Züri for Züri. Where else is that? We will come back. L1 bought and very happy with it.

No list of iconic Swiss excellence omits watches, chocolate, and cheese. This workshop is a fascinating demonstration and explanation of how a watch works. Our watchmaker told us about each piece as she disassembled a watch before our very eyes - its purpose and how it works. Then it was our turn to put it back together again (!). For real! But fun because our watchmaker was overseeing and guiding and sharing tricks and expert tips. I was delighted that most of the time was spent hands-on. Still, I must mention that upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Leo, one of the brothers of the MDM family. He made us feel totally at home. He started with a brief overview of the family business his father started, and the industry in general. We asked loads of questions, and enjoyed the conversation very much. Plus, I before we booked this activity, we looked online at the watches they make, and we think they are fantastic! (They look even better in person.) Do not miss this!

Fascinating explanation of how a watch works. Arlene, our watchmaker, told us about each piece as she disassembled a watch. Then it was our turn to put it back together (!) - with her supervision and expert tips. I was delighted that most of the time was dedicated to our hands-on experience.
This tour in Geneva is organized by Maurice de Mauriac
