Founded in 2026, Dominique Renaud embodies a radical and contemporary vision of watchmaking. More than a brand, it represents a language built on absolute coherence between function and form, where every aesthetic choice stems from technical necessity. Its creations stand out through a fluid, essential design that is instantly recognizable, expressing a new idea of beauty: pure, self-evident, and inevitable.

A key figure in modern watchmaking, Dominique Renaud is renowned for developing complications for some of the most prestigious Maisons and for co-founding the Renaud & Papi manufacture. His approach is deeply experimental and collaborative: each project emerges from dialogue, observation, and a constant desire to challenge established principles. Within Haute Horlogerie Dominique Renaud (HHDR), a creative laboratory based in Tolochenaz, this vision takes shape through a multidisciplinary ecosystem dedicated to innovation.

The brand’s first creation, the Pulse60, stands as both a technical and philosophical manifesto. Built around a 1 Hz frequency—one beat per second—it introduces a new approach that favors stability and natural rhythm over the multiplication of impulses. Its large high-inertia balance wheel and extended amplitude redefine the behavior of the movement, reducing disturbances and enhancing consistency. More than measuring time, Dominique Renaud reinterprets it, proposing a vision where mechanics and humanity converge.
