A luxury gift from Les Baux-de-Provence, carved from the same stone

From the limestone of the Val d'Enfer to the dial of a watch

The white limestone of Les Baux-de-Provence, quarried for centuries, used to build the citadel itself and immortalised by the Carrières des Lumières immersive shows, has a precise texture: ridged, layered, warm in the southern sun. We translated that texture into the ridged beige dial of every ALPILLE watch. The 40 mm polished steel case echoes the cleanness of cut stone. The leather straps recall the olive groves of the Vallée des Baux below and the red earth of the surrounding Alpilles.

Other villages have ceramic shops, lavender boutiques and souvenir mugs. Les Baux deserves more. ALPILLE is the meaningful gift that captures the spirit of this place without ever shouting about it.

A French wedding, anniversary or retirement gift, built around Les Baux

Many couples discover Les Baux on their honeymoon and want a wedding gift that holds the memory. Others propose at the citadel and search for a wedding-day watch worthy of the setting. ALPILLE answers both: a sober, polished, handcrafted French watch that costs a fraction of a Swiss luxury watch but carries a real story, the story of the Alpilles and of a French atelier that assembles every piece by hand.

Each watch ships in a signed gift box with a numbered authenticity card and a handwritten note if you wish. Engraving on the case back is available on request. Free returns within 14 days, in case the surprise lands sideways.
