Yesterday was a day of immense emotion for Yosuke-san.
What greater gift to close the year than the ultimate consecration for a self-taught watchmaker.
“When I arrived in a little bit more than twenty years ago, without a watchmaking diploma, it was difficult for me to imagine that one day I would have the legitimacy to establish myself independently and create my own watches. Later, despite years of relentless work, it was even harder to imagine that I might one day receive kind attention and positive words from those I consider true masters and geniuses of
Without knowing each other beyond a certain distance, Mr. spoke positively about me and my work to people within the industry, and even to clients. Earlier this year, I finally gathered the courage to visit him and present my watch.
His wife and he welcomed me with great warmth. What followed was one of the most emotional moments of my life, when they said to me:
“Yosuke, this piece is extraordinary. We would like to acquire one. What must we do to have one ?”
From that day on, I imagined nothing but this moment: the day I would deliver my Primevère watch to Mr. Philippe Dufour. That day has now come.
My wife and my friend Jason accompanied me to witness what, to me, represents the ultimate blessing: one that is worth more than any other award a watchmaker could hope for in seeing his work at the bench recognized.
Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Dufour.
Thank you to my family, my friends, my clients, and to everyone who believes in me.”
With this message of happiness and gratitude, the entire Yosuke Sekiguchi team wishes you all a wonderful holiday season, surrounded by those you love.
Very warmly,
The YS Team
