BACK TO OUR ROOTS

The year 1929 will remain in memories.

In the quiet little town of La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the Northern part of Switzerland and home of the Swiss tradition of quality and innovation in watch manufacturing! In spite of the Great Depression which followed the stock market crash of 1929, a small group of bold watch lovers and technicians stubbornly ignored the financial turmoil and proudly founded the JOVIAL watch company. The name was inspired by the feelings of joy and pleasure. His appellation was true; the JOVIAL watches bring joy and self-assurance to those who own them.

That was the time when every part of the watch had to be produced in house, from the movement, case, dial, hands to the bracelet. Only very skilled and enthusiastic watchmakers could achieve such a performance.

MOVING FORWARD IN TIME

As such -for that time- «modern» production units increasingly developed in Bienne, JOVIAL factory recognized the need to be closer to them and moved to “The world capital of Watch manufacturing city” Bienne, Switzerland in 1946, just after the end of Second World War.

From that time, the skill and success of the company resided in choosing the right component at the right price and depended largely upon the general design of the watch, which had to reflect the right mix of traditional and progressive ideas.
