Rodolfo Festa Bianchet recounts how he returned to watchmaking after selling his fintech company and founded Bianchet with his wife, Emmanuelle. He says the brand’s rounded, tourbillon-focused designs are built around the golden ratio, a principle he first studied in financial market analysis and now applies to case and movement proportions.
