French watchmaker Cyril Brivet-Naudot started working on the Eccentricity at the age of 29. He had just graduated from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland, but it could be said that the kind of watchmaking he would pursue was influenced by his time at the Lycée Edgar Faure in Mortau in his native France. Brivet-Naudot combines this respect for tradition – almost all elements are hand-made at his manufacture without the use of CNC – with a technical expertise, that has seen him reimagine the eccentric escapement.
