Monserrate was born in Portugal, shaped by memory, heritage, and a deep sense of belonging. As an architect, I see time the way I see space - in lines, forms, and details that endure. Each timepiece carries the essence of Portuguese identity, echoing the curves of its monuments, the rhythm of its streets, and the quiet poetry of its light. I carry Portugal within me, and through these watches I honour that journey-where tradition meets modern design, and every moment is a tribute to the place I proudly call home.
