In short
Inside the watch manufactures opens the workshop doors of the great Swiss watch houses, where movements are still assembled by hand, and introduces you to dealers who hold pieces that never reach a window. It is available all year in Switzerland, and Avellera arranges it privately as part of a tailor-made journey.

Behind the workshop door of the great Swiss houses, where movements are still assembled by hand. We open it, and introduce the dealers who hold pieces that never reach a window.
Good to know

Food, Wine & Craft
12Growers who pour their own wine, in cellars and vineyards you would never find alone. Six countries, and the producer at the table in every one of them.
13In a private kitchen, with a cook who has done it their whole life. Apfelstrudel and Schnitzel in Vienna, Mozartkugeln in Salzburg, pesto above Cinque Terre, Brezel in Munich, pierogi in Poland, goulash in Hungary.
14Up to a working alpine dairy while the milk is still warm. You watch the wheel come together, turn it yourself, and eat what came off the shelf last summer.
