NEOTYPE Watches

When it comes to watchmaking, France has long been regarded as one of the best in the business and it’s great to witness new watchmakers emerge from the country. The latest to have captured our attention here at The Coolector is NEOTYPE Watches and their first-class collection of bold yet understated timepieces.

NEOTYPE watches are entirely designed, developed and assembled in France. Each element of these decidedly dapper timepieces is designed and developed by NEOTYPE, from the case to the bracelets and from the dial to the case, for a homogeneous result of truly unparalleled quality. And, perhaps best of all, with prices starting at an entirely reasonable £545, you can get one of these classy watches on your wrist without having to break the bank entirely.

The flagship release from NEOTYPE is their awesome-looking LM01D Watch which is available in a number of different finishes including Steel and Gold PVD and the prices range from £545 to £589 depending on the finish you go for. NEOTYPE claims a particularly Gallic touch in its approach by displaying a resolutely different style, an unwavering obsession for detail and quality. This watchmaker stands out by offering contemporary and original revisits of watchmaking classics. And, safe to say, we’re big fans here at The Coolector.

NEOTYPE is committed to crafting watches that have been made with the best materials available: this includes the likes of 316l steel, FKM rubber and sapphire crystal for an end result with very high added value. The extreme care taken in machining and finishing these watches is a prerequisite for each piece. The casing and adjustment of NEOTYPE watches are provided by the watchmaker’s partner workshop in the Jura region, the stronghold of French watchmaking so you can rest assured that the quality on offer is second to none.

All NEOTYPE watches are produced in a numbered limited edition and this air of exclusivity certainly adds to their appeal still further in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. Small quantities with a real focus on quality, design and performance is what watchmaking should be all about and this is something that the guys are well aware of. After a high-quality, adventure-ready timepiece for under £1000? The LM01D from NEOTYPE won’t let you down.
