The Grandval brand was born in 2019 from a simple idea: to offer watches and beautiful leather objects inspired by the ’60s and ’70s, the golden age of creativity in design and music. The ideals of freedom and faith in the future guided the most creative minds back then. It is these ideals and energy that guide us today.

Grandval develops internally, and with the help of rigorously selected partners, watches that are designed, controlled, adjusted and assembled in France, as well as leather accessories manufactured on the banks of the Loire in our partner workshop, holder of the precious EPV label “Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant”.

The name Grandval is an homage to the castle of the same name, which has disappeared and was once located in the south-east of Paris, in the inner suburbs. Many personalities stayed there, including Diderot who stayed there several times while he was writing his famous encyclopedia. This castle gave its name to the neighborhood where Thomas, the founder of the brand, grew up. The buckle was complete.
