Audemars Piguet
Since 1875, in the village of Le Brassus at the heart of the Vallée de Joux in the Swiss Jura region, Audemars Piguet has been creating and marketing under its own name a range of Haute Horlogerie watches, particularly complex models.
Representing a rarity in the sector, the company is the world's oldest Manufacture still in the hands of the founding families. The great-grandchildren of the two founders, Jules-Louis Audemars and Edward-Auguste Piguet, ensure the continuity of a legacy based on age-old know-how and three fundamental values: tradition, excellence and innovation.
In Le Brassus, workshops dating back to 1875 house the Audemars Piguet Museum; the headquarters of the holding company, the technical and after-sales service departments are located in the Manufacture built in 1907; while the watchmaking, jewellery and micro-mechanical engineering workshops are housed in the new building inaugurated in 2000.
The Audemars Piguet holding company incorporates all fields of activity within the Manufacture, from the making of movements and cases in Le Brassus and its subsidiaries in Le Locle and Geneva, to distribution by its regional agencies and the retail trade through its boutiques.
