Welcome to another Time to Watches podcast, where each recording highlights the people who make the world of watchmaking so fascinating.

Recorded at Time to Watches in Geneva, Alon Ben Joseph & Rob Nudds welcome Louis Jalaper, founder of Atelier Jalaper, for an in-depth conversation about material-driven design and independent watchmaking.

During the discussion, Louis explains how Atelier Jalaper was born from a shared passion for watches and automobiles, and how the brand builds its identity around the transformation of materials into contemporary timepieces. Rather than focusing on nostalgia, Atelier Jalaper approaches each project with a modern design language and a strong emphasis on subtle details.

The conversation also touches on the importance of transparency and traceability in the creative process, as well as the brand’s first experience exhibiting at Time to Watches. Louis shares insight into Atelier Jalaper’s direct-to-consumer approach and the early steps toward developing a selective retail presence.

A relaxed and engaging exchange about passion, materials and the creative journey behind a young independent watch brand.
