Questions for Victor Muffat-Jeandet
What motivates you every day to push yourself beyond your limits?
The emotions and sensations I feel when I’m on my skis and competing are truly unique. I don’t find them anywhere else.
What is your greatest sporting memory?
Without hesitation, my participation in the Olympic Games and my medal. It was a waking dream, filled with memories and emotions that will last a lifetime!
What message would you give to young people who wish to follow in your footsteps?
Fight for your dreams! Whatever you do, give it your all so you’ll have no regrets. Don’t assume things are set in stone, and never stop believing in yourself because no one else will do it for you!
If you could only keep four products from the brand, which ones would you choose?
I’ll choose the pieces that have left the biggest mark on me in the brand’s history ;-) :
• Avalanche Extreme Regulator (2000s): the first watch that introduced me to the brand.
• Alpiner 4 Chronograph Manufacture Flyback Black (2016): the most beautiful piece in my collection, entirely made in Plan-les-Ouates.
• Alpiner 4 Automatic Shadow Line (2019): simple and efficient, full black with a touch of red that gives it a “Star Wars, dark side, Darth Vader” vibe ;-)
• Alpiner Extreme Skeleton Automatic (2025) Steel Bracelet: I’m very happy to have contributed to the revival of the legendary “Extreme” line, the brand’s emblematic model. I love the Skeleton design — seeing the entire movement in action is absolutely fascinating.
