Klanic is a Swiss family-run watch brand founded by Philippe Narbel, his wife Natacha, and their four children, with the ambition of making independent watchmaking more accessible while preserving the artisanal values that have defined Philippe Narbel’s career. Based in L’Abbaye, in the heart of the Vallée de Joux, the brand combines Swiss craftsmanship, creative design and honest pricing within a project built around family, transmission and shared passion. Drawing on Philippe Narbel’s experience as a former Audemars Piguet watchmaker and finishing specialist, as well as the expertise developed through his decoration company Manufactor SA and his high-end brand Narbel & Co, Klanic offers timepieces that remain faithful to traditional Swiss watchmaking while embracing a more approachable and inclusive philosophy. More than simply a watch brand, Klanic is conceived as a community united by craftsmanship, authenticity and the desire to share the values of independent watchmaking with a broader audience.
