History of Audemars Piguet
On December 17, 1875, after completing his apprenticeship as a watchmaker with his father, Jules-Louis Audemars decided to found his family farm in Le Brassus, in the Vallée du Jour, in Switzerland. Audemars acts as an “ironing machine” on complex watches, ie inspects them before they are put on the market. When the number of orders became too large for him, he called on a former classmate and friend to help him: Edward-Auguste Piguet, whose family was also trained in watchmaking.
Audemars and Piguet decide to join forces to create and market their own models. On December 17, 1881, the two friends signed a contract officially starting their business. They founded the “Audemars Piguet & Cie” watch manufacturer.
Since its inception, this factory has specialized in complicated watches and sophisticated watch mechanisms. They have built their reputation on the quality of their work and the modernity of their watches. The first takes care of the manufacturing, while the second puts the finishing touches to the product. Their company targets a high-end audience who appreciate original creations: the brand personalizes each model and innovates as much as possible.
As early as 1882, the brand launched the first watch models equipped with a perpetual calendar, a minute repeater or a chronograph. The company made its first recruitments, specializing in watchmaking.
Soon the co-founders restructured. While Audemars continues to manufacture watches, Piguet is now working on the commercial development of the brand.
