The Team
MYKU is the vision of Founder Kuan Teo and designer Francois Hurtaud. The two friends realized early on that their visions aligned: they were both passionate about crafting something unique and beautiful, using design as a medium of expression. The team at MYKU designs for the discerning collector who understands the beauty in subtlety and appreciates understated luxury. MYKU brings you one-of-a-kind luxury Swiss-made watches.
Inspiration
Both the cultural significance and the natural beauty of the elusive but substantial stone inspire the team of MYKU. For centuries, the practicality of the stone has been used in architecture, art and jewelry. The meaning that stones carry has also been extolled, precious pieces passed down through generations around the world. Cutting stones in a way that reveals the inner, layered beauty requires high precision and meticulous skills. The layers take millions of years to form, but only precisely slicing through the top, tough layer reveals the real beauty of each stone. Each cut materializes in a unique stone face. Our one-of-a-kind timepieces carry the weight and significance of these stones.
Process
All of our products are designed and developed in house, from the initial sketch to prototype. Stripped to its elements, our design philosophy is to create timeless products of the highest quality. Our global partners carefully craft every mechanism of the watch. Our close collaborations are built on experience and expertise in different areas alongside a shared passion for detail. Our watches are made and assembled in Switzerland. MYKU watches are subjected to stringent quality checks during assembly.
