LEVILLE was started in 2018 Jan, a group of watch-addicts with the passion and constancy of the traditional watch craftsmanship. They believe that the most timeless and desirable timepiece must be the traditional one. They would like to awaken people’s mind about the core function of a watch, thus create their brands.
They believe that every city has its own uniqueness. It represents the best of its own culture, values and traditions. Their designer curates this authentic collection by combining traditional craftsmanship and innovative design for all cities. They have worked tirelessly to ensure every detail of our watch has been perfected and made to the most premium quality in the world.
LEVILLE introduces the first “Régulateur collection” to all city lifestylers! The watch is a perfect union of modern and tradition, of technology and simplicity, and inspired by vintage regulator watches. Featuring a beautifully curved case, sapphire crystal and a regulator dial, they also adopt a reputable Japanese quartz movement and multi-dials display for extreme precision time readout. In addition, they offer interchangeable Italian calf leather strap, Nato strap and Milanese strap, which are perfect for all occasions for both men and women.
Watch Movement

With 2 years battery life, an accuracy of ± 15 seconds per month at – 5 ℃ to + 50 ℃ temperature range. Seiko VH83A providing accurate and reliable time-keeping functionality to the “Régulateur collection”.
Design: Dial and hands
To differentiate the design from huge fashion watches that are going out in same, the dial design finds inspiration from the 18-century regulator dial display which the seconds, minutes and hours indication are separated into sub-dials and combined with the modern minimal design.
The base of the dial is decorated with matt-sandblasted finishing, giving it a dedicated texture effect. The indicators are printed in elegance Arabic numerals and tracks and displayed by the baton-shaped hands. To improve the design features and legibility of the time telling, we designed a disc with red halo mark which floats over the arcs to encircle the minutes.
The main dial is used to indicate minutes and seconds. The 24 Hours and date are relegated to recessed sub-dials at 7 o’clock and 4 o’clock, respectively. The day is indicated by the retrograde dial design at 10 o’clock.
Dial variations include (1) All Silver, (2) Black and Khaki Gold, (3) Silver and Rose Gold for men; (1) All Silver, (2) Champagne and Khaki Gold (3) Pink and Rose Gold for women
