Favre Leuba history
It is the year 1737. In Le Locle, a small Swiss village in the Jura mountains and in the heart of the watchmaking world, Abraham Favre founded his Manufacture producing timepieces.

It was one of the earliest watchmaking companies. From the very start Abraham Favre concentrated on improving the technology of his timepieces, and the quality of the materials employed in his manufacture.

His hard work and pioneering spirit the business grew and was passed down through eight generations of the Favre family. It was Henry-Auguste, representing the fourth generation, who in 1814 went a step further by going into partnership with Auguste Leuba, a watch dealer from Buttes in the Val-de-Travers.

The Manufacture Favre-Leuba was born and continued to expand as time went by. Thus by the 19th and early 20th centuries Favre-Leuba had ramifications around the world, with representations throughout the Middle East, Asia, North / South America, Russia and other European countries.

Proud of its nearly 300 years of uninterrupted history, Favre-Leuba enjoys a well-deserved worldwide reputation for its legendary watch movements and unique designs.

Under the leadership of Henry A. Favre during the years following the Second World War, the company continued efforts to improve the technology of the watch movements, focusing on improving their properties at different temperature.

This research indeed resulted in more accurate and reliable movements, most of which are still running well today – some 50 years later. The FL 251 movement designed in 1962 is a good
example of these exceptional masterpieces : it is an extra-thin twin-barrel movement with a centre second hand and 50 hours of power reserve. It was a good 30 years ahead of its time.
1962 was also important to Favre-Leuba as the year when the “Bivouac” was launched, the first wristwatch with an altimeter / barometer function.

It was a runaway success and became a must for the major expeditions of the time. Paul-Emile Victor used it in Antarctica, Vaucher and Bonatti for conquering the north face of the Grandes Jorasses in the Alps. Many others followed in their footsteps.

1964 saw the launch of one of the earliest diving timepieces, the “Deep Blue”, which was waterproof to 200m. In 1966 came the legendary “Bathy”, a unique mechanical instrument giving divers not only a precise indication of their time under water, but also a direct and accurate reading of their actual depth.

The “Sea Raider” followed in 1970, with a true techno-logical break-through : their first high-frequency movement of 36’000 alternances per hour giving the watch unparalleled accuracy.
