Concept
Inspired by Roland Barthes’ A Lover’s Discourse (itself a response to Goethe’s Werther), Bard’s Whisper honors Roger Dubuis’ “Knights of the Round Table” with the creation of “Madonna.” Driven by an irrepressible creative passion, our team spent two years uniting Gothic influences from various eras with the skills of 20+ Taiwanese artisans to craft a watch everyone can own. What may seem audacious is truly a tribute to the hardworking spirit of Taiwan.
Case
Advanced hand-coloring and precision engraving
Motifs drawn from Notre Dame’s Gothic spires and tracery
Sides feature floral and Hibiscus-leaf (Gothic wood) etching
Case back engraved with Gothic script and antique-style ornament
Entire watch (including strap) weighs 180 g; special strap design evenly distributes weight for comfort
Madonna Sculpture
Six prototypes are scrapped for every finished piece
Based on Our Lady of Guadalupe—3D scanned and refined to a 4 mm micro-sculpture
Over 30 jewelry techniques and 100+ steps preserve minute detail and ergonomic wear
Straps
Double-butterfly clasp, handcrafted with ergonomic design and digital modeling
Main strap: coffee-brown calf leather with bamboo-grain texture
Alternate strap: vegetable-tanned leather, embossed Gothic motif in your choice of three colors
Includes strap-changing tool; each lasts over two years, simply air-dry if wet
Dial
Sapphire crystal with multi-layer anti-reflective coating
Design inspired by a 5th-century Byzantine chandelier fragment from Sidon (modern Saïda, Lebanon)
Faceted “diamond” hands reflect even low light for easy reading
Crown
Hand-painted details within a 0.7 cm diameter, lines as fine as 0.01 mm (1/10 hair width)
Traditional technique inherited from early Taiwanese luxury watch and jewelry makers
