A subtle sense of déjà vu? The address has changed, the interior design is quite different, yet the new Lionel Meylan is pervaded by the same, almost palpable philosophy that the family and its team have been cultivating for the past 26 years: an authentic love of watchmaking matched by a genuine desire to communicate, to advise and to share. Lionel, Julien and Yannick Meylan, together with their staff members, continue to convey a passion for beauty as expressed through the finest watch brands and the most refined jewellery creations.
Spotlight on the watchmaker
As has been the case across the past two decades, the in-house watchmaker remains firmly centre-stage. His workbench is placed at the heart of the boutique, within clear view of the visitors who can thus observe him at work, request explanations about a timepiece, or tips on maintenance, as well as asking him to examine a watch, change a battery or strap, or make an adjustment. He vividly embodies the welcoming and service-oriented attitude to which Lionel Meylan remains firmly attached.

New chapter
While the address has changed, the interior design displays aesthetic continuity. Within these new 100 sq.m. premises, the decor has been carefully thought out in every detail so as to pay tribute to expertise, to finely crafted timepieces and to dainty jewellery creations. Black and beige tones combining classicism with a contemporary mood, leather-clad panels instilling a warm atmosphere enhanced by the parquet flooring. Bathed in natural light, the new Lionel Meylan boutique at 14, Rue de Lausanne, provides the ideal setting for immersing oneself into the fascinating world of time measurement. This marks the start of a new chapter for Lionel Meylan and the story continues with all the passionate authenticity that enthusiasts have come to expect.
