Formex Bespoke
One watch.
Uniquely yours.
A personal gemstone setting, created to order for the stainless steel Essence collection and individually hand-set by our gemsetter in Switzerland.
Bespoke, by Formex
A personal expression of Swiss engineering.
The Essence is defined by purposeful engineering, wearing comfort and meticulous finishing. Our Bespoke Gemstone Setting Program adds one more dimension: your own. Begin with the size, choose from the dials available for that model and select the stones, then work directly with our team to shape a made-to-order creation.
Selected creations
A starting point for something personal.
These completed watches show how different dials and gemstone settings can change the character of the Essence. Your request is reviewed individually for suitability and availability.
Discover the program
Subtle sparkle. Entirely personal.
From a discreet accent to a more expressive setting, every request begins with a conversation. The finished watch remains unmistakably Essence, with a character that belongs only to its owner.
