Each recording features the people who make the world of watchmaking so fascinating.

In this episode, recorded live from the Glass Igloo at Time to Watches 2025, hosts Alon Ben Joseph and Rob Nudds talk with Jean-Sébastien Bolzli from Aerowatch.

Founded in 1910 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Aerowatch remains a proud, independent family business. Known for its elegant pocket watches and timeless wristwatches, the brand continues to merge century-old craftsmanship with a modern design language rooted in Swiss heritage.

Jean-Sébastien shares Aerowatch’s remarkable journey from pocket watches to wristwatches, the rebirth of mechanical timepieces, and the importance of preserving authenticity in a changing industry. He also reflects on the brand’s creative process, the rise of new audiences rediscovering pocket watches, and why human connection remains at the heart of the business.

This conversation offers a rare look at how passion, family legacy, and innovation intersect to shape the future of independent Swiss watchmaking — and how Time to Watches helps bridge that tradition with a new generation of enthusiasts.
