Horalune Studio · for independent watch brands

Let collectors design your next watch, before it exists

Photoreal, real-time 3D configurators made for watches: guilloché dials, faceted polished hands, sapphire, and a working movement behind the caseback. In the browser, on any phone.

Why it's different

Built for watches, not adapted from furniture

General product configurators are made for sofas and sneakers. Watches are harder: tiny polished facets, engraved dials, glass, and moving parts. That's all Horalune does.

Watchmaking-grade finishes

Guilloché patterns (Clous de Paris, barleycorn, waves), sunburst, fumé and lacquer dials; applied faceted markers; blued, gilt and rhodium finishes; Côtes de Genève and perlage on the movement.

Complications that work

Hands set to the visitor's local time, a date and day-date that show today, a moonphase showing tonight's real phase, and an automatic movement with a beating balance you can flip over and watch.

Fast, everywhere

Runs in the browser with nothing to install. The whole watch is about a megabyte, compressed, and designed for phones as well as desktops.

What you get

From engagement to demand data

Live today

A configurator collectors want to play with

Every option change renders instantly. Presets, "Surprise me", shareable build links and downloadable images help your watch travel on Reddit, forums and WhatsApp.

Included for pilot brands

Your site, your brand

We build your case, dial, hands and branding into the configurator and set it up on your own website or Shopify store.

Included for pilot brands

Requests and demand data

"Request this build" and "Notify me" capture interested buyers with their exact configuration, and show which dials, colours and sizes people actually want before you commit to a production run.

How it works

Three steps from your drawings to a live configurator

  1. Send your designs

    CAD files are ideal (STEP, OBJ or similar). Technical drawings and reference photos of finishes work too.

  2. We build and tune it

    Your case and dial are modelled for the web, finishes are matched to your samples, and your options and presets are set up. You review it on a private link.

  3. Launch on your site

    It goes live on your website or product page. Your designs and branding remain yours.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do we need CAD files?
They make things faster and more accurate, but they're not required. Technical drawings with dimensions and good photos of your finishes are enough to start.
Who owns the 3D models?
Your designs, names and branding stay yours. We license the configurator software and our library of shared parts and finishes to you.
Will it slow down our site?
The configurator loads separately from the rest of your page and shows a still image of the watch while the 3D view loads. A complete watch is about a megabyte.
Does it work on phones?
Yes. It's designed for phones and tablets as well as desktops, and works in all modern browsers that support WebGL.
Can customers order through it?
For pilots, customers can request a build or join a waiting list with their exact configuration, and you take the order from there. Direct checkout can be discussed for your shop.
