Monochrome reports that the 2024-founded independent has followed the V01-LLC with the V0201-TH, continuing a dial language built around transparency and suggestion.

What Version Watches is
The question around Version Watches this week is how much a dial can reveal while still leaving room for suggestion. In Monochrome’s introducing story, the publication describes Version Watches as a young independent brand founded in 2024 by Cybèle Vigneron and Carla Lafranchini.
According to that report, the brand makes Swiss-made watches with “classic with a twist” styling and a recurring interest in transparency. The specific design language named in the source is the semi-openworked dial: not a fully skeletonized layout, but a partial opening-up of the dial surface as a way to suggest what sits beneath.
The V0201-TH is reported as the brand’s second collection, following the V01-LLC. The supplied material does not include dimensions, calibre details, production numbers, price, delivery timing or a campaign link, so those details are not confirmed here.
Public Notice
Where the conversation is
The public coverage supplied for this note is Monochrome’s article, published on October 19, 2026. Its headline says the V0201-TH is now on Kickstarter, and the story positions the watch as a continuation of Version Watches’ semi-openworked approach rather than a one-off departure.
For collectors keeping records, the useful distinctions are simple: Version Watches is the brand named in the report; V0201-TH is the collection named in the headline; V01-LLC is identified as the earlier collection. The supplied material does not provide a Version Watches site, shop page or Kickstarter campaign URL to link directly, so the confirmed public link is the Monochrome report itself.
