ofounders Charles G Tremblay and Simon Maltais applied their engineering backgrounds to develop watch accessories that exhibit an uncompromising devotion to quality and design-driven functionality. “Our engineering experience allows us to find innovative ways of augmenting our products,” Tremblay explains, “It is this interrelation of design and engineering that really sets us apart from conventional accessories.”

The brand’s expertise is also reflected in their choice of materials. Charles Simon watch accessories are made by hand from premium materials, including French young bull leather, soft Alcantara®, anodised aluminium and a special sturdy yet lightweight aluminium-carbon fibre combination that is more usually found in yachts and luxury planes.
