Formex

Formex Swiss Watches is an independent Swiss watch manufacture founded in 1999 in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland. Headed by CEO Raphaël Granito, Formex sits at the intersection of high-spec Swiss engineering, innovative material science, and ergonomic utility. Operating on a direct-to-consumer hybrid model with select retail partners, the brand is renowned for introducing automotive-grade structural engineering into modern sports watchmaking.

Formex’s hallmark innovation is its patented Case Suspension System—an integrated shock-absorption setup inspired by high-performance motorsport suspension that cushions the movement and improves wrist comfort. The brand is known for extensive ergonomic features, including carbon fiber fine-adjustment clasps, tool-free interchangeable bezel systems, and lightweight high-tech materials such as Grade-2 hardened titanium, forged carbon composites, and high-tech ceramics. Dials showcase deep horizontal CNC finishes, hand-applied degrade effects, or exotic stones like malachite and meteorite, paired with COSC chronometer-certified Swiss movements.
