Krayon
ActiveSwiss independent brand specializing in astronomical complications displaying sunrise and sunset times for any location on Earth.
Founded in 2017 by Rémi Maillat, a watchmaking engineer and designer. The brand specializes in astronomical complications, particularly watches that display sunrise and sunset times for any location on Earth. The Everywhere (2017) was the first mechanical watch capable of showing sunrise/sunset times anywhere in the world, winning the Innovation Prize at the 2018 GPHG. The Anywhere (2020) continued this philosophy and won the Calendar and Astronomy Prize at the 2022 GPHG. Krayon operates from a historic lakeside building in Neuchâtel with a team of about 12 watchmakers, following a 'One Watch, One Watchmaker' philosophy where each timepiece is assembled entirely by a single watchmaker.
