The world of bimbu natural stone continues to catch the attention of the media. This week, L'Express features our Patrium Turquoise Spider in a selection dedicated to the visual power of mineral dials. This recognition confirms the importance of craftsmanship and material at the heart of the bimbu project.

Natural stones hold a unique place in contemporary watchmaking. They fascinate through their textures, their nuances and their energy. Each stone tells a story. It conveys an emotion that can neither be reproduced nor standardised. It is precisely this singularity that bimbu has sought to preserve since the creation of the Patrium collection.

The Turquoise Spider featured in the article perfectly illustrates this vision. Its stone, chosen for the richness of its veins and the intensity of its hues, brings rare depth to the small seconds counter. This same stone can be found on the back of the watch, thanks to the mineral inserts surrounding the movement. This dialogue between raw material and Swiss mechanics creates a natural harmony, both modern and timeless.

Each dial is crafted in Switzerland with particular attention paid to the stone itself. Polishing, cutting and integration demand extreme precision. The aim is simple: to reveal the authentic beauty of the stone without altering it. Thanks to this approach, every watch becomes a unique piece. Nature is the artist. Humankind is the guardian.

bimbu's presence in L'Express also underlines the growing importance of craftsmanship in today's watchmaking landscape. At a time when production is accelerating, the house champions slow time, the sincerity of materials and respect for tradition. This is how bimbu builds a form of watchmaking that is freer, more intimate and more open.

We are honoured to see the Patrium Turquoise Spider featured in this selection alongside great houses. It reinforces our conviction: the most precious luxury is one that carries a soul.
