Now mature and well-renowned, the Manufacture provides its services to small, independent houses and major international brands alike, with director and founder Valérien Jaquet at the helm.
2026 also marked the Manufacture’s twentieth anniversary, celebrating two decades of bold creations, driven by complete independence and a vision firmly focused on excellence.
This milestone provided an opportunity to extend our warmest thanks to our staff, whose commitment and expertise lie at the heart of our success, as well as to the brands that have placed their trust in us for many years. Together, we continue to conceive and craft exceptional timepieces that contribute to the prestige of Swiss watchmaking.
Today, the site houses 180 employees practising all the crafts associated with traditional watchmaking and firmly rooted in the region’s industrial heritage, but with a resolutely contemporary eye.

In order to support sustained, regular growth, combined with the long-term goal of a fully independent senior management team, a series of major building projects to enlarge and extend the Manufacture take place. Our new workshops give pride of place to the artistic crafts.

Focused on the development of grand complication movements such as tourbillons, minute repeaters and grande sonneries, the team takes a decisive step by bringing its activities together on the site of the family business, specialising in micromechanical production. The merger of the two entities makes it possible to take on all the stages necessary for the design, development and production of complete movements, giving rise to a true Manufacture.
Meanwhile, the assembly, decoration, mechanics and production departments that make complete escapements continue to grow, bringing together all the craft of contemporary fine watchmaking under the same roof.

His designs are a source of novel ideas that allow his clientele to stand out from the crowd.
In collaboration with a small team of engineers, he offers a wide range of reliable, exclusive and customisable products.
