HISTORY: In 1785, Philippe DuBois founded what is now Switzerland's oldest watch factory in Le Locle (CH). The history of the founding family dates back to the 18th century. First as successful textile entrepreneurs, then as pioneers in watch making, the DuBois family built up their name and reputation reaching far beyond Swiss borders. Since 2010, Thomas Steinemann has been at the helm of the company. With great flair, he repositioned the brand and led it into a modern age of tradition and digitalization. Based in Basel and Le Locle, the company breaks new ground in the tension between tradition and innovation.
