Custom watch: why configuring your own changes everything

May 23, 2026

There are watches you buy. And watches you truly choose.

A production-line watch leaves a factory in the thousands. It is identical to hundreds of others being worn at this very moment. A custom-configured watch is unique to you.

At A★Star, each customer assembles their watch from A to Z: case, strap, dial, hands. Four steps. A fixed price. A unique result.

Step 1 — The Constellation case

In 316L stainless steel, available in silver, black PVD, rose gold, yellow gold, and two-tone versions with contrasting bezel.

Step 2 — The strap

Jubilee, Oyster, leather or rubber. Solid color or two-tone. Seven to eight colors depending on the model.

Step 3 — The starry dial

A glittery dial that sparkles differently depending on the light and angle. Pure, Arabic or Modern Collection.

Step 4 — The hands

Lightning, Starburst, Star, Arrow or Moon — in several colors.

Once your configuration is validated, your watch is hand-assembled in France, tested with a timegrapher, checked for 5 ATM water resistance, and inspected for 48 hours before shipment.

Fixed price: 190€ — whatever your configuration.

A★Star — Born in the dark. Made to shine.

FAQ

What is the warranty coverage and its duration?

Each A*Star watch comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase. It covers all manufacturing defects — movement, case, dial, and internal components. If a problem is found within this period, we will repair or replace the watch, free of charge to the customer. The warranty does not cover damage resulting from abnormal use or accidental impact.

Can I return my watch if I don't like it?

Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy from the date of receipt. If for any reason the watch is not right for you — size, appearance, feel — you can return it to us in its original condition and we will process a full refund, no conditions or justification required. We believe a watch should choose you as much as you choose it.

Are A*Star watches waterproof?

Our watches are certified 5 ATM, which corresponds to water resistance equivalent to 50 meters of static pressure. In daily use, this means they are perfectly resistant to splashes, rain, and hand washing. However, they are not designed for swimming, diving, or any prolonged immersion. To maintain water resistance over time, we recommend having the seals checked every 2 years by a professional.

How do I adjust the strap to my wrist?

Good news — you don't need to go to a watchmaker. Each A*Star watch comes with the necessary tools for adjusting the strap, whether it's a steel or rubber strap. The process is simple and accessible to everyone, without any particular technical skills. An adjustment guide is included in the packaging to help you step by step. In just a few minutes, your watch is perfectly adjusted to your wrist, at home, with no additional costs.

Is the watch suitable for both men and women?

Our models are designed with a unisex mindset. The sleek design, case dimensions, and starry dial transcend traditional gender codes in watchmaking. An A*Star watch is worn according to your style, your personality — not according to a category. Consult our size guide to find the diameter that best suits your body type.
