Part watchmaking course, part clock, the Persée Fantôme Limited Edition for Hodinkee invites collectors to assemble, customize, and illuminate a one-of-a-kind horological experience.

Details

Maison Alcée is not a watch brand in the traditional sense. Founded by French engineers Alcée and Benoît Montfort, the brand focuses on teaching people about watchmaking in a tactile, immersive, and lasting way. Rather than starting with a finished product, Maison Alcée offers an experience via a kit, with 233 finely crafted components, 90% of which are made in the Jura, that you assemble yourself, slowly piecing together a mechanical clock that runs, ticks, and keeps time. It’s a clock and a gateway to watchmaking all in one box.

For the Hodinkee Limited Edition, we worked closely with Benoît and Alcée to create a version that celebrates that same spirit of education, while also incorporating several details that are entirely exclusive. The stainless steel base has been treated with a ruthenium coating, giving the clock a darker, moodier tone that echoes our signature Hodinkee Grey color and ties this special Persée Fantôme to our aesthetic. These grey tones are interrupted only by the perfectly polished finish of the striking bell, which chimes on the hour when activated. The custom syringe handset, exclusive to Hodinkee, has been re-engineered to be luminous, and — in a delightful twist — it arrives unpainted, allowing you to finish the job yourself. Finally, the outer dial has also been prepared with luminous treatment, and once again, you apply the lume by hand. It’s a reminder that in this project, your effort, your craftsmanship, and your patience become part, a glowing part, of the clock itself. All of these details add up to a piece that is both subtle and striking, depending on where it’s placed in the owner’s home.

Watchmaking Experience

This element of participation is what sets the Persée Fantôme apart from almost anything else in modern watchmaking. While the industry often celebrates limited editions as rare or collectible, few invite the collector to physically take part in the actual making of the piece. With the Persée Fantôme Limited Edition For Hodinkee, you don't just own a clock you have built it, adjusted it, and even left your brushstrokes on its luminous glow. That kind of intimacy with the object is something collectors often dream about but rarely get the chance to experience.

Step-By-Step Process

Each of the 25 numbered units will be shipped in a beautifully crafted rosewood presentation box, complete with the full kit of components and a 150-page instruction book that includes links to the accompanying videos. Should you need additional guidance, Maison Alcée is available via a dedicated WhatsApp group for those who purchase one of the brand s kits. You are never left on your own, as Maison Alcée provides full guidance throughout the assembly, ensuring both success and a deeply rewarding experience.
