HODINKEE Radio Inside Sellita And Albishorn With Sébastien Chaulmontet

Today, my guest is Sébastien Chaulmontet. Today, Sébastien is the Director of Innovation and Marketing at Sellita. His career in watches has also included stints with La Joux-Perret, Arnold & Son, and Angelus. But he started a collector, particularly of vintage chronographs – he even wrote a book about them and is working on another. Besides his full-time job at Sellita, he has also just launched his own brand, Albishorn, to create small batches of what he calls "imaginary vintage" watches, which we talk about during our conversation. Albishorn's first release is the Maxigraph, a regatta timer in collaboration with Massena Lab. 

I've known about Sébastien for years, but only had the pleasure of meeting him last month in Geneva. He's as passionate and knowledgeable as they come, and I enjoyed our conversation – I hope you do, too. Thanks as always for listening to Hodinkee Radio.
