Leuba Watch Company

Favre Leuba is a Swiss luxury wristwatch manufacturer headquartered in Grenchen, Switzerland, and formerly a pioneer in watch design, manufacturing and distribution. The brand was established in 1737, following the registration of Abraham Favre as a watchmaker. However, the Favre-Leuba family was forced to sell the company's name in 1985 due to the ongoing quartz crisis, which made manufacturing watches more difficult. The company has collaborated and supported numerous mountaineers, as their Bivouac watches feature an altimeter and an aneroid barometer. Favre Leuba is the second-oldest watch brand in the world, with Blancpain having been founded two years earlier in 1735. An archival document from 13 March 1737 declared Abraham Favre (1702–1790) a watchmaker with his own workshop. It was his son, who was also named Abraham Favre, who turned his father's occupation into a business. In 1792, Abraham Favre and his two sons, Frederic and Henry-Louis, founded the company A. Favre & Fils in Le Locle. Abraham Favre had always concentrated on improving the technology of his watches, their properties at different temperatures, and the materials used in watchmaking to make more reliable and accurate movements. Frederic Favre's son, Henry-Augustus, who was only 19 at the time, collaborated with Auguste Leuba, a member of a family of watchmakers and merchants, creating the brand name Favre-Leuba in 1815 and broadening the family business to the world market.
