THE TEAM
Nicolas Secretan
Co-founder | Customer Relations
Born and raised in a family of musicians, Nicolas has studied percussions and classical singing for fifteen years. Later on, Nicolas obtained his Public Relations Diploma in Switzerland.
Nicolas has already worked a few years in the auction world, for well-known houses in New York and Asia.
Passionate about vintage watches, he co-founded ORBIS in 2022 with Luca. Managing everything that happens behind-the-scenes, he is also taking care of the boutique grand opening that will happen next year.

Luca Cretin
Co-founder | Master Watchmaker
While doing his traineeship as a Microtechnician specialising in restoration/complications, Luca gained hands-on experience with luxury watches by repairing every watch he could find, from his own to his clients’. His expertise lead him to work for famous watch brands in Switzerland.
In his free time, he has founded various projects and provided after-sale services for Antenen & Adinolfi in Le Brassus.
In 2023, Luca obtained his Watch Expert license and is able to legally authentify the watches in his hands. He just came back in Switzerland after spending a year at a workshop in Canada to further deepen his knowledge in aftersale services and English.

Noah Zaffinetti
Watchmaker
During his four-year training at the École Technique de la Vallée de Joux, he obtained his CFC as a Watchmaker-Rhabilleur. Eager to gain hands-on experience, he worked at Antenen & Adinolfi in Le Brassus during his free time.
Following this, he pursued an Advanced Federal Diploma (ES) as a Watch Construction Technician. His journey led him to Jaeger-LeCoultre, where he completed an internship in the technical office, worked there during holidays and free time, and ultimately carried out his diploma project within the company.
Noah is happy to welcome you and service your watch in our new Yverdon workshop!
