Horage Watches

Horage Watches

Horage is what happens when engineers run the watch brand — and we mean that as a compliment.

This is next-gen Swiss horology, built on in-house micro-rotors, silicon tech, and transparent manufacturing. If you like your watches modern, mechanically interesting

and not powered by the same movement everyone else uses? Horage is a name to watch.

A Little History

Founded in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland in the early 2000s, Horage started as a movement R&D lab, developing silicon-based escapements and modular architecture for

the Swiss industry. But after years behind the scenes, they started building watches under their own name — and what they’ve released since has been quietly game-changing.

Rather than buy off-the-shelf calibers, Horage spent years developing its own movement platforms — including the K1, K2, and K-Tourbillon — with features like 80-hour

power reserves, micro-rotors, flying tourbillons, COSC certification, and fully modular assembly.

They still manufacture their watches in Switzerland, release in small batches, and maintain a tight link between product and engineering. No fluff. No celebrity ambassadors.

Just specs, transparency, and shockingly good value.

What Collectors Love

Horage watches appeal to tech-first collectors and design purists — people who want in-house engineering and clear communication over marketing spin.

Key models include:

Autark

  • Titanium integrated sports watch with Horage’s K1 movement

  • 39mm, COSC-certified, 65–80h power reserve

  • Available in a range of dials, including limited editions

Supersede GMT

  • Ultra-thin GMT with 10ATM WR, micro-rotor movement, and flyback GMT hand

  • One of the most spec-loaded GMTs under $6K

Tourbillon 1

  • Swiss flying tourbillon, COSC-certified, 120-hour power reserve

  • Offered as a direct-to-consumer “accessible tourbillon” — under $10K at launch

  • Fully transparent breakdown of cost, materials, and suppliers

Lensman 1

  • Photography-themed model with rotating outer bezel and precision chapter ring

  • K1 movement, lightweight titanium case, bold styling

All of these run on Horage’s in-house movements — a rarity at this price point and scale.

Why Horage Deserves a Spot

Because it’s doing what most brands only pretend to do: building proprietary movements, explaining them in plain English, and charging fair prices based on what’s inside, not what’s trending.

Horage is also one of the only Swiss brands actively using silicon components, and their modular movement platforms allow them to build everything from

three-handers to GMTs to tourbillons — all under one roof.

You’re not just buying a design — you’re buying engineering integrity, backed by specs and transparent sourcing.

What’s Out There Now

Horage releases in small batches, usually through direct sales or pre-orders. Common specs include:

  • Titanium or steel cases, 38–40mm

  • K1, K2, or Tourbillon movements

  • Sapphire crystals, ceramic bezels, 100m WR

  • Custom dials — some textured, others enamel or openworked

  • COSC certification standard on most models

Pricing:

  • Autark / Lensman / Supersede — $2,000 to $5,500

  • Tourbillon 1 — $7,000 to $9,000 (at launch; resale varies)

  • Limited Editions — occasionally higher depending on materials

Fed’s Take

Horage is one of the most underrated movement makers in the modern game.

I’ve seen the Supersede and Tourbillon 1 in-hand — and the engineering is tight. The micro-rotor is buttery. The specs are unreal. And the watches wear beautifully

even with all that tech inside. Plus, I respect any brand that publishes its cost breakdown online. That’s rare air.

If you want modern Swiss horology without the markup or mystique, Horage is the smart-money play.
