Since 1884, Edox has imagined, produced and distributed Swiss-made, hand-assembled timepieces. That philosophy — tradition and the know-how of our elders, met with modern equipment and skilled Swiss watchmakers — has never changed. It simply found its home in a quiet village in the Jura.
The Manufacture
Every Edox is conceived and hand-assembled at the brand’s manufacture, where more than a hundred synchronized components are brought together, regulated and tested. It is a place, as Edox likes to say, “where time seems to stand still” — unhurried, exacting, and devoted to getting each watch right rather than getting it out fast.
Les Genevez, Switzerland
Edox relocated from Bienne to Les Genevez in the early 1980s, and has been family-owned there ever since. It is a village of around 500 residents in the Swiss Jura, at 1,035 metres of altitude, with a documented history reaching back to 1381. Its name comes not from Geneva but from the Latin for juniper.
At the heart of the Swiss Jura
Watchmaking belongs to this landscape. Harsh conditions and long, cold winters once made watchmaking a welcome supplement to farming families’ income, and the region still carries that dual heritage of the farm and the workbench. To build watches here is to continue a craft the Jura has practised for generations.
Tradition, made to last
Edox pairs that heritage with contemporary standards: modern tooling and rigorous testing in the service of watches that are meant to be worn hard and passed on. It is the same conviction Christian Rüefli-Flury had in 1884 — that a watch should be as reliable as it is beautiful.
