You Are What You Work With
Our unwavering dedication to excellence begins with the selection of only the most exquisite materials for our handmade accessories.
Leather
Tactile Beauty, Enhanced by Time
The exterior of our accessories is dressed in full-grain Taurillon leather, renowned for its silky texture, remarkable durability, and high fiber density. Over time, this leather develops a rich patina, unveiling a unique character while preserving its pristine quality.
Alcantara® Interior
Durability in Softness
The inside of our accessories is lined with Alcantara®, a suede-like fabric that is equally soft and durable. Made in Italy, this high-tech, carbon neutral material offers a sophisticated sensory experience while being resistant and easy to maintain.
Nubuck
Sumptuously Smooth
Our Hudson Watch stands are dressed by hand in fine Nubuck leather, distinguished by its soft, velvety texture. Over time, Nubuck develops a rich patina, deepening in character and charm. This natural evolution makes each Charles Simon accessory crafted from Nubuck a singular masterpiece, imbued with a history as unique as the timepieces it is designed to display.
“The quality of our accessories begins at the source. Every element is chosen with intention and care, knowing it shapes not just our products, but the experience they bring.”
Aluminum
Engineering Excellence
The metal components of our accessories are made from anodized aluminum, a material that is lightweight yet incredibly robust. Commonly used in aerospace engineering, this material maintains structural integrity under extreme conditions.
The anodization process enhances corrosion resistance while providing vibrant, long-lasting color finishes that combine durability with aesthetic sophistication.
Carbon fiber
Strength Hidden Beneath the Surface
Charles Simon accessories are internally fortified with ultra-light carbon fiber to offer prime engineering performance. An advanced composite material known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, carbon fiber offers five times the durability of steel while remaining significantly lighter.
