Depancel: French watchmaking with a motorsport soul

Depancel is for those who are as thrilled by classic cars as they are by watches. This French microbrand has built its entire identity around the golden age of motor racing, with pieces that evoke legendary circuits and iconic racing machines.

France, 2018

Founded in 2018 by Clément Meynier, Depancel was born with a clear passion: to pay tribute to the motor racing of yesteryear. Every watch evokes that vintage racing aesthetic, with considered design and plenty of character.

Its style

Racing-inspired watches —chronographs, dashboard-style dials, nods to classic cars— with finishing to match and a very compelling value for money.

Why a Depancel

Because it combines a passion for motoring with fine French design, in short runs and with real personality. Ideal for lovers of classic motor racing.

Where to buy it in Spain

At World Watch Museum we are an official Depancel dealer: new watches, 100 % original, with official warranty, free shipping and a boutique in Madrid.
