02.5 / Savoir-Faire

The Art of the
Human Hand.

Machines cut geometry; only the human eye can breathe soul into metal. In Geneva, four finishing disciplines define every Valoir creation.

I / BEVELING

Anglage à la Main

45-degree chamfers filed by hand on nickel-silver bridges, then mirror-polished using gentian wood pegs and diamond paste.

II / STRIPING

Côtes de Genève

Radial sunburst waves originating from the escapement center, capturing and diffracting ambient light across the movement.

III / GRAINING

Perlage Artisanal

Overlapping micro-circles pressed by hand onto the mainplate to retain microscopic oil reserves and reduce friction.

IV / MIRRORING

Polissage Noir

Specular optical flat polishing on steel balance bridges that renders surfaces either pitch black or blindingly bright.
