During the 1700s, Swiss watchmaking was rapidly advancing, with many of today’s well-known brands originating in Le Locle, a small city nestled in the Jura mountains of Switzerland.
Standing at the forefront of the horological Swiss movement was Abraham Favre, who was eventually titled the ‘Master Watchmaker of Le Locle.’ Many generations of the watchmaker's family laboured to take his celebrated legacy forward, together with Auguste Leuba from Buttes in Val-de-Travers - creating a brand that has been conquering frontiers ever since.

SERVICE
Service & Care Your Favre Leuba Watch
From the outset, the founder of Favre Leuba established a network
of watchmaking workshops around the world, tasked with ensuring that all of the brand’s
watches could receive the best possible servicing and maintain their excellent technical
performance and pristine appearance. As a result, there is no limit on how long a Favre
Leuba watch can keep working, being handed down from one generation to the next, and
living several lives.
Following the launch of the Harpoon Revival at Watches and Wonders Geneva earlier this year, Favre Leuba expands the collection with two new references in black and blue. Retaining the compact proportions and vintage character of the original 1966-inspired model, both editions feature a sunray-brushed dial and the same self-winding mechanical movement as the inaugural version.
Favre Leuba introduces three limited editions of the Deep Raider Revival, created in collaboration with French strapmaker Jean Rousseau. Marking the first collaboration between the two maisons, the collection comprises 99 timepieces—33 pieces in each of three distinct executions—each pairing the 39mm Deep Raider Revival with a handcrafted Jean Rousseau strap in black calf leather with a “soja grain” finish, brown Seaqual recycled material, or beige rubber, alongside exclusive Favre Leuba design details.
Grenchen, September 1, 2026: Favre Leuba is proud to announce that the Chief Skeleton (Ref: 00.20105.103.02.302) has been nominated for 2026 Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG) under the Challenge category. This is the brand's first GPHG nomination, achieved within just two years of the global relaunch.
