What Comblemine does

Comblemine SA is a Swiss manufacturer and designer of high-precision watch dials, hands, appliqués, bridges, and plates, founded in June 2014 in St-Sulpice, Val-de-Travers. The company integrates traditional dial-making craftsmanship, including hand guilloching and manual decoration, with modern precision machining, surface treatment, and galvanization capabilities delivered in-house. Its service portfolio is organized into four interconnected lines: Prestations (feasibility, fabrication, surface and galvanic treatments, decoration), Techniques (hand and machine finishing operations), Couleurs (galvanic, oxidized, crystal, and varnished color development, including custom R&D), and Produits finis (finished dials, guilloché work, unique pieces, and limited series).

The company operates as a direct B2B supplier to luxury watch brands, including both major Maisons such as Vacheron Constantin and independent watchmakers such as De Bethune, Armin Strom, Moritz Grossmann, Petermann & Bédat, Sartory Billard, Schwarz Etienne, Urban Jürgensen, and Voutilainen. Pricing is bespoke and not publicly disclosed, consistent with project-based manufacturing for unique pieces and small-to-medium series. The company is privately held, owner-operated, REACH certified since December 2019, and maintains no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or institutional investors. Marketing is conducted through the corporate website, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Core offering

Comblémine SA manufactures high-precision watch dials, hands, appliqués, bridges, and plates for luxury watch brands, combining traditional craftsmanship (hand guilloching, manual decoration) with in-house surface treatment, galvanization, and precision machining. The company offers an integrated portfolio spanning feasibility studies, component fabrication, decoration, and limited-series assembly for prestigious Maisons and independent watchmakers.

Product overview

Comblemine SA is a traditional watch dial manufacturer offering a unified portfolio of integrated watchmaking services rather than discrete software products. The core offering spans four interconnected service areas: Prestations (comprehensive services from feasibility study through component manufacturing and decoration), Techniques (high-precision finishing operations including hand guilloché and machine decorations), Couleurs (galvanic treatments, varnishes, and custom color development), and Produits finis (finished dials and unique pieces). This integrated approach distinguishes Comblemine from traditional dial makers by handling surface treatments, galvanization, and component machining in-house for unique pieces and limited series.
