This week on In The Metal, in a very rare interview, we will be welcoming a guest whose name is synonymous with some of the most iconic timepieces of our generation, and who is so in demand that his client list reads like a who's who of contemporary independent, and indeed mainstream watch manufacturers.
Taking us back to the very conception of the watch, to that stage in the process when it actually first takes its shape, and which often precedes the ceremonious unveiling by years, Eric Giroud is a creative visionary who literally can see into the future, and truly a legend of modern watch design.
From MB&F to Manufacture Royale, from Harry Winston to Rudis Sylva, from Vacheron Constantin to Van Cleef and Arpels, the list goes on and on and on.
Eric's extraordinary output ranges from immaculate minimalism to spectacular and elaborate expressions of mechanical art.
Set your reminder for In The Metal this Thursday, as yet another one of the most influential figures in the entire watch industry gives us an exclusive glimpse into his world.

If you're not yet familiar, In The Metal is the inside scoop on the very best of independent watchmaking, and is brought to you each week by @irishwatchguy Johnny McElherron of The Watch Press, and the legend who is the former lead guitarist with thrash metal icons Anthrax, and now present day Master of Complications and the vanguard for US independent watchmaking, Mr Dan Spitz.
Each week we take an informal, behind the scenes look at the fascinating world of independent watchmaking, and take you on a journey beyond the façade and into the lesser-seen and secretive corners of the watchmaker's atelier, where we are joined live and direct by the very finest artisans and masters of this centuries-old art form, where a true and traditional heart continues to beat.
