OUR STORY
Origins and Inspirations
Established in 2016 by the French-Italian designer Marc-Olivier Rinaldi, Black Goose is a distinguished watchmaking brand that celebrates the deep connection between classic timepieces and vintage automobiles.
Craftmanship and Savoir-Faire
Our watches are the fruit of craftsmanship, passion and the traditional methods of the automotive industry. In 2023, we took another step forward with the creation of the Atelier de Créations Horlogères (ACH), dedicated to bespoke watches and small series, perpetuating our commitment to artisanal excellence.
THE WORKSHOP
The heart of creation
The Blackgoose workshop, located in the heart of Nice, is the soul of the brand. This is where ideas take shape, where sketches are transformed into exceptional watches. Each model is carefully imagined, designed and assembled in this space dedicated to watchmaking craftsmanship. Far from industrial production lines, the workshop favors small series and made-to-measure production, enabling each watch to tell a unique story.
The craftsmen who work in the workshop combine traditional know-how with modern innovation. Their meticulous approach ensures that each watch is not only a design object, but also a high-precision piece. Movements are carefully selected, materials are noble and durable, and every detail, right down to the final engraving, is carried out with an eye to perfection.
At Blackgoose, we believe in the beauty of the handmade and the authenticity of small-scale production. Our workshop embodies this philosophy, offering our customers watches that are not just timepieces, but true works of wearable art.
