Before me introduce you?

Dominique Baron: My professional career began with creative arts courses. After graduation I chose to join another life: having children. But I have no passion for the art of hand-cut, so I re-entered the school, studying fine art work painted enamel ─  especially the arts, to become a painted enamel arts home.

In 2000, Geneva, Roger Dubois, I started a enamel craft workshops, will be taken to a new realm of business. There was no professor of art courses specifically painted enamel dial on the Arts. So I determined to plant a new generation of enamel paint craftsman, arts and crafts heritage of the door. It was a tremendous trust of expression! It produced its first watch is a big challenge: It was a production of one hundred orders for the watch!

Works fine enamel painting is not an exact science; it is a requirement from time to time to their own creative work, technology, knowledge and technology to the art of self-examination. Every detail is full of uncertainty: enamel powder when ready to mix a good enamel paint artisans painted dial, followed by the baking process is started. Dial 800 degrees Celsius temperatures change with the fate. When baking kiln door closed, we can not know the inside situation: many surprises waiting to happen, unsolicited "sand" can block the whole system running seamlessly work ... ... I will always be in a warm and the balance between patience. Enamel painted art is the crystallization time; this coincides with the Van Cleef & Arpels Van Cleef & Arpels timepiece conceived agreement.

Yes, because enamel painting is very time-consuming creative arts. Dial painting about forty to fifty hours, which does not include the time required for advance preparation process. While giving people the feeling of the end of time, but only patience and work to integrate into a taste of its history and poetry. Each one dial can also be said to be a painting. In fact, need to be independent of each chop dial painting. You have to embrace this passion for art ─ portion of themselves into each work.

What you dream of creating the dial?

I love in a larger writing surface enamel painting. I also want to also create a great and fine works of art that is the first large-scale image, and then replicated to a small enamel dial. I have endless creative ideas, hate only too little time.
