Designer
In-house design studio
The reference was drawn by the manufacture's internal design office, where case, dial and movement architects work alongside the watchmakers rather than as an outside commission.
Historical significance
Krayon Metiers d'Art 38 mm Slate Platinum sits within Krayon's Metiers d'Art line, introduced in 2017. It carries the house codes established since 2017 — platinum 950 case, slate grey dial and manual-winding, hand-finished — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.
Interesting facts
- Early production dials show a slightly different minute track, and collectors pay a premium for them.
- The movement's bridges are decorated even where they will never be seen once the watch is cased.
- The case is finished by hand, alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces in a single pass so the edges stay razor sharp.

Brand history
Krayon has spent more than 9 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Everywhere, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.
Rémi Maillat established Krayon in 2017, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Krayon calibre produced today.
