IN GOOD TIME

Switzerland has been known as the centre of the watch industry for more than 400 years and today it continues to produce outstanding timepieces. Ginger Rose Clark explores its horological story Below: Vacheron Constantin’s bespoke Les Cabinotiers Phoenix watch

Blancpain is the oldest Swiss watch company still in existence

S

wiss-made is one of the most respected references in the world of watchmaking.

It is a carefully protected appellation, determined by exacting standards. The beginnings of the Swiss watch industry reach as far back as the 16th century, but its rise has not always been a smooth trajectory.

The inception of Swiss watchmaking was a direct result of the arrival of Protestantism in Geneva. In 1541, Protestant reformer John Calvin banned the wearing of ornamental objects; faced with the prospect of losing their jobs, goldsmiths turned to watchmaking instead. So successful was this transition that a century later many of Geneva’s watchmakers felt challenged by too much competition and began to leave the city, opting for the Jura 43 49

44

mountains instead. To this day, some of the biggest Swiss watch brands are headquartered in this region.

One such is Blancpain. The oldest Swiss watch company still in existence, it was founded in 1735 by Jehan-Jacques Blancpain, who set up his workshop on the top floor of his house in the village of Villeret. More than 280 years later, now headquartered at Le Brassus, Blancpain proudly produces watches that are designed and assembled in Switzerland.

Brands acknowledge and pay tribute to the beginnings that shaped them. Blancpain, for example, has a collection called Villeret, its place of origin. Vacheron Constantin, the third oldest Swiss watch brand (after Blancpain and Favre-Leuba), offers a bespoke service called Above: Blancpain’s Great Beauties collection

competition and industrialisation posed a threat to the Swiss watch industry. Switzerland’s watchmakers tried to flood the US market with cheap watches, but to no avail. It was only when they adopted a new strategy, opting to create better quality, mid-range timepieces, that Swiss brands started to remedy the situation.

The 20th century saw a rise in a number of brands, with newcomers such as Corum.

Founded in 1955, this brand is headquartered in La Chaux-de-Fonds, a town renowned for watchmaking. Marie-Alexandrine Leibowitch, PR director at Corum, highlights the brand’s relationship with its place of origin. ‘Corum was founded by a family from La Chaux-deFonds and has always had its headquarters there. Its links with the city are therefore very

Les Cabinotiers. This was the name used in the 18th century for the artisans who worked for Geneva’s cabinets, or watchmaking workshops, which were located on the top floor of the city’s buildings in order to benefit from natural light.

In the 18th century, pioneer watchmaker Daniel Jeanrichard introduced a labour division system, known as établissage, which was to have a massive impact on the industry. Farmers in the Jura region, who had less agricultural work during the winter months, became specialised in making specific watch parts, which would then be assembled by watchmakers. This was a first step towards the industrialisation of watchmaking and, by 1790, more than 60,000 watches were being exported from Geneva.

In the mid to late 1800s, American

strong and most of our suppliers are located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, or nearby.’ This proximity, she adds, is integral to the brand.

Of course La Chaux-de-Fonds isn’t the only watchmaking hotspot. Le Brassus is another town famed for its links to the industry, and is home to Audemars Piguet as well as Blancpain.

The development of the quartz watch almost led to the demise of Swiss watchmaking.

Despite being invented in Switzerland in 1967, it was appropriated by Japanese companies such as Seiko. Faced with this competition and a bad exchange rate, Switzerland’s mechanical watchfocused industry suffered. From 1970 to 1984, the workforce dropped from around 90,000 to 30,000. It was partly due to the founding of Swatch by Nicolas Hayek that Switzerland regained a foothold. Hayek saw the potential of promoting a watch with a more fashion-led aesthetic, and an affordable price-tag, and the world was rapidly won over by Swatch’s plastic watches.

Brands also realised that the only way Above (from top): the Corum workshop at La Chaux-de-Fonds; Swatch spring/summer 2019

to survive was to streamline, integrate production and reorganise. Adopting a luxury positioning in the face of quartz, brands of mechanical watches started to leverage their technical expertise, craftsmanship and rich legacy in order to appeal to customers. The 90s witnessed a surge in sales of mechanical timepieces and it was around this time that luxury conglomerates, in particular the Swatch Group, Richemont and LVMH, started to invest in top-quality brands.

The most recent threat to the industry has come in the form of digital timepieces.

However, looking at history, it is clear that the Swiss watch brands have always known how to reinvent themselves when faced with a challenge. A leisurely walk through Geneva is proof that Switzerland’s relationship with watches is still very much alive and well. The streets are lined with boutiques from many of the country’s most prestigious haute horlogerie names. It is evident that Swiss-made watches are here to stay Above (from top): a vintage Favre-Leuba pocket watch; Swatch Keith Haring watches from 1986

VICTORINOX Founded as a knife maker more than 130 years ago, Victorinox stands for quality, functionality and innovation. Today its product range extends to travel gear, fragrances and timepieces. Bringing together Switzerland’s watch-making capabilities and the brand’s design reputation, its newest Inox watch has been eagerly anticipated. The first Inox was released in 2014, and the new mechanical version (named, unsurprisingly, Inox Mechanical) appears similar to the quartz original but it features a transparent back case revealing the guilloche dial and internal mechanisms. The signature bezel has extra coating to make it even more resistant and shiny, and the watch is the first of its kind to feature a wooden strap, which is crafted on to leather to ensure durability and strength.

24: IN GOOD TIME 沉浸好时光 400多年来，瑞 士 一直被认作是 钟表 业 的中心。如今，它仍 继 续生 产着杰出的 时计产品。Ginger Rose Clark将带你 探索 瑞 士的钟表故事 “ 瑞 士 制造”是世界制表界最受尊 敬 的参考值 之 一，这是 一 个由严格 的 标准决定 且受 到严密 保 护的 概 念。瑞 士 钟 表 业 的起源 可以 追溯 到16世 纪，然而它的崛 起 之 路 并不总是 一 帆 风 顺。 日内瓦 的新 教 来临直 接 催 生了 瑞 士 钟 表 业 的诞 生。1541年，新 教 改革 者John Calvin宣 布禁 止 人们 佩 戴 装饰 物，金 匠们 纷 纷 转向制表 业 来 避 免失 业 的 前景。这个 转变 如此成 功，以 至于 一 个 世 纪 之后日内瓦制表 匠们因过于激烈的竞 争而 离开 这个 城 市，转而 移居至 Jura 山区。直到 现 在，不少大 型瑞 士手表品牌 的总部 仍 设在 Jura。 宝 珀（Blancpain）就 是其中之一。这个 现 存 至今历史 最 悠久 的瑞 士 钟 表公司始 创于1735 年，Jehan- Jacques Blancpain在他 坐落于 Villeret 村子 的住 房顶 楼 开设了工作 室，创立了 Blancpain品牌。280多年后，总部设在 Le Brassus的Blancpain仍自豪 地 生 产 着在 瑞 士 设 计 和组 装的手表。 品牌总是 乐于 追 根溯源，向诞 生 地 致以敬 上图: Blancpain“四大美人（Great Beauties）”腕表系列

意。例 如，Blancpain有一 个以其发源 地Villeret 命名的系列。历史 悠久 度 排名第三 的瑞 士手表 品牌 江诗 丹 顿（Vacheron Constantin，创始 于 Blancpain和 Favre- Leuba之后）则提 供名为Les Cabinotiers的定制服 务。该名字曾被 用来形 容 18世 纪 在日内瓦 的 “cabinets”（意为 制表 工坊） 中工作 的工 匠，这 些工坊往往 坐落于城 市 建 筑 的顶 楼，以便于获 取自然光源。 在18世 纪，先 锋 制表师 Daniel Jeanrichard引 进了一 种名为établissage的分工系统，这个系统 对整 个行业都产生了巨大的影响。Jura 地 区的 农民 在冬 季农闲时节专门制造 特定 的手表零 件，之后由制表师 组 装。这 正是 手表制作产业 化的第一 步，到1790年为止，日内瓦已 经 出口了 6万多只手表。 在19世 纪中后期，来自美国的竞 争和工 业化 进 程 对 瑞 士 钟 表 业构成了威 胁。瑞 士 制表品牌 试图以廉 价 的手表 攻占美国市场，然而无济 于 事。直到瑞 士采 取了生 产 优 质中档手表 的新战 略时，情况 才 得以 好 转。 随 着 Corum等新兴品牌 的出现，20世 纪 迎 来了品牌 数 量 的兴荣。Corum成 立于1955年，总 部 位于以制表 业闻名的La Chaux- de- Fonds小 镇。Corum的公 关 总监Marie- Alexandrine Leibowitch强调了品牌 与其发源 地 的紧密联 系。“Corum是由来自La Chaux- de- Fonds的家 族 所 建 立 的，因此 总部 也一直设在 此 处。品牌 和 该 市镇 的关联尤为紧密，因为 我们 的供 应商大 多都 位于 La Chaux- de- Fonds或 附近。”她补充 道，近邻关系是品牌 不 可或缺 的一 部 分。当 然，La Chaux- de- Fonds 并非 是 唯 一 的制表 热

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 24: IN GOOD TIME В ДОБРЫЙ ЧАС

Уже более 400 лет Швейцария остается мировым центром часовой индустрии. Джинджер Роуз Кларк изучила историю швейцарских часов В часовом деле маркировка «Сделано в Швейцарии» считается самой уважаемой и авторитетной. Настолько, что ее использование охраняется законом и регламентируется строгими правилами. История швейцарских часов началась еще в 16 веке, и путь к современному успеху далеко не всегда был прямым. Отправной точкой стало появление

в Женеве протестантизма. В 1541 году реформатор церкви Жан Кальвин запретил прихожанам носить украшения, и ювелиры столкнулись с перспективой потерять работу. Тогда они обратились к часовому делу, и это оказалось самым удачным и перспективным решением. Спустя всего век конкуренция среди часовщиков в Женеве была настолько сильной, что мастера начали уезжать из большого города в Юрские горы. И по сей день штаб-квартиры самых крупных швейцарских брендов находятся в этом регионе. Один из них – Blancpain, старейшая из существующих часовых компаний Швейцарии. В 1735 году часовщик Жеан-Жан Бланпэн открыл мастерскую на верхнем этаже собственного дома в городке Виллере. С тех пор прошло более 280 лет, компания переехала в Ле-Брассус и продолжает выпускать часы, которые разрабатываются и собираются в

Швейцарии. Швейцарские бренды почтительны к сформировавшим их корням. Blancpain, например, выпустил коллекцию под названием Villeret в честь своей малой родины. Бренд Vacheron Constantin, третий старейший производитель (после Blancpain и Favre-Leuba), назвал свой индивидуальный сервис Les Cabinotiers. В 18 веке так именовали мастеров, которые работали в женевских cabinets, или часовых ателье. Эти комнаты занимали верхние этажи городских зданий, чтобы в них попадало как можно больше естественного света. В 18 веке один из основоположников часового дела Даниэль Жанришар ввел систему разделения труда établissage, которая преобразила всю индустрию. Зимой у фермеров Юрского региона было намного меньше сельскохозяйственных работ, и в свободное время они брали участие в производстве

часовых механизмов. Затем профессиональные мастера собирали хронометры из подготовленных деталей. Это стало первым шагом к индустриализации часового дела и ускорило темпы роста. К 1790 году из Женевы экспортировалось более 60 000 наручных часов. Во второй половине 19 века над швейцарским рынком нависла угроза со стороны американских конкурентов. Производители пытались впечатлить американских покупателей дешевыми вещами, но все было тщетно. И только когда часовщики приняли новую стратегию и стали выпускать более качественные модели по средним ценам, ситуация постепенно выправилась. В 20 веке количество производителей резко выросло, появились новые имена. Например, в 1955 году был основан бренд Corum, штабквартира которого до сих пор находится в городе Ла-Шо-де-Фон. PR-директор МариАлександрин Лейбович подчеркивает тесную связь Corum с родным городом: «Компания была основана семьей из Ла-Шо-де-Фон и всегда базировалась здесь. Мы всецело включены в жизнь города, и многие наши поставщики находятся в Ла-Шо-де-Фон или поблизости». По ее словам, представить себе бренд без этой близости просто невозможно. Разумеется, Ла-Шо-де-Фон далеко не единственная такая точка в Швейцарии. К подобным городам относится Ле-Брассус, где

работает не только Blancpain, но и Audemars Piguet. Взлет кварцевых часов чуть не привел к упадку швейцарского рынка. Несмотря на то, что они были изобретены в Швейцарии в 1967 году, их присвоили японские компании, такие как Seiko. На фоне конкуренции и низкого курса валюты швейцарские производители сосредоточились на выживании. С 1970 до 1984 год количество сотрудников в этой сфере сократилось с 90 000 до 30 000. Новую точку опоры страна получила благодаря компании Swatch, основанной Николасом Хайеком. Хайек увидел потенциал в более модных часах по доступной цене – и стремительно завоевал мир пластиковыми моделями Swatch. Бренды хорошо понимали: у них есть только один способ выжить – это обновить, объединить и реорганизовать производство. Чтобы отстраниться от кварцевых часов, они занялись роскошным позиционированием и сделали ставку на техническую экспертизу, мастерство и богатое наследие. И клиентам это понравилось: в 1990-е продажи механических часов начали устойчиво расти. И именно в это время крупные объединения, особенно Swatch Group, Richemont и LVMH, решили инвестировать с роскошные бренды. Теперь над традиционной индустрией нависла новая угроза – цифровые технологии. Однако история показывает, что швейцарские
