The founder of Ophion is a fervent watch collector himself and have always dreamt of owning exquisite movements with matching elegance and classic style finishing. Needless to say, such preferences are often tagged with a hefty price tag. He concluded that it is very difficult, almost impossible, to find the characteristics of Haute Horology in affordable pieces. Feeling disheartened too many times, the Founder, Miguel Morales Ribas set out to change this. Miguel was inspired by watchmakers in the likes of F.P. Journe, Ferrier or Voutilainen, capturing their spirit of watchmaking, less the retail price of owning their masterpieces.
