MADE FOR PIONEERS
In 1863, the schooner Grafton set sail from Sydney.
On board, Captain Thomas Musgrave and four companions — no state fleet, no inherited fortune, only their savings, their daring, and one goal: to reach Campbell Island in search of a vein of argentiferous tin that others doubted even existed.
The subantarctic seas are treacherous. A storm drove them onto the remote shores of Carnley Harbour.
For nineteen months, they endured — surviving through ingenuity, courage, and mutual support, crafting tools, shelter… and finally a small boat. Three of them braved 300 kilometers of open ocean to rescue the two left behind.
At Augé, we create instruments for those who venture beyond the beaten path, who read nature as others read the hour.
A pioneer’s life demands bold choices, new perspectives, and the will to act.
With the Since 4.6 B.Y.R.S. on your wrist, you will never lose sight of what truly matters.
