Renaud Tixier Enters the United Kingdom Market

Nyon, Switzerland – October 22, 2025 — Renaud Tixier, the independent haute horlogerie brand founded by master watchmaker Dominique Renaud, announces its official entry into the UK market through an exclusive retail partnership with Swiss Gallery in London. This strategic step strengthens the brand’s European footprint and provides British collectors with a singular destination to discover its inaugural creation, Monday, in an environment that mirrors the brand’s values of craftsmanship, rarity, and tailored service.

Guided by a philosophy that reinterprets classical watchmaking with contemporary invention, Renaud Tixier continues a measured global rollout anchored in trusted, collector-focused retail partners. Following successful debuts in key regions abroad, London joins the brand’s selective network—affirming a long-term commitment to thoughtful growth and exceptional client experience.

Located in one of the world’s most discerning watch capitals, Swiss Gallery will serve as Renaud Tixier’s sole retailer in the UK. The collaboration is founded on shared ideals—respect for traditional craft, a drive for innovation, and a collector-first approach.

From the very first encounter with the Monday, it was evident that Renaud Tixier stands apart,” said Nadeem Sarwar, founder of Swiss Gallery. “The movement’s ingenuity, the purity of the finishing, and the brand’s integrity resonate with our clients. We are proud to champion an independent that balances genuine technical breakthroughs with timeless elegance.”

Swiss Gallery will offer an intimate, educational experience for seasoned connoisseurs and emerging collectors alike, with direct access to the brand and its evolving story.

At the center of the launch is Monday, the first in a suite of seven creations that revisit and elevate traditional horological archetypes. The watch addresses the inefficiencies of classical micro-rotor systems through a patented central inertia wheel conceived by Dominique Renaud, improving winding performance by mirroring the effects of kinetic energy recovery systems used in the automotive industry. The movement comprises 274 components and no fewer than 187 hand-finished interior angles, reflecting Julien Tixier’s mastery of traditional techniques and uncompromising finishing standards. The result is a neoclassical timepiece that unites measured restraint with profound substance—an ideal companion for collectors who value enduring design and mechanical clarity.

About Renaud Tixier

Renaud Tixier was created by Dominique Renaud, legendary watchmaker and movement creator with a career spanning over 40 years. Born from his desire to reinterpret the archetypes of traditional watchmaking through a contemporary lens, Dominique partnered with Julien Tixier, a young and talented watchmaker, to explore the intersection of tradition and innovation. Envisioned as a collection of just seven creations produced in limited quantities, each timepiece features a patented innovation and reflects a perfect equilibrium between neo-classical aesthetics, exceptional finishing, and technical ingenuity. The inaugural model, a three-hand watch named Monday, introduces the brand’s first patented invention: a micro-rotor with a central inertia wheel that enhances the winding efficiency of the mechanism—an industry first. Renaud Tixier is where the boundaries of horological legacy are continuously redefined.
