This fortune 500 luxury watch company founded in 1875 by Jules-Louis Audemars and Edward-Auguste Piguet, remains a tight-knit family business to this day. This family run organization, has gone far and away to stay true to their familial, legacy. So much so, that they have never been sold, at any point in history. Both founders come from traditional watchmaker backgrounds, who had established headquarters in Le Brassus in the stunning Swiss Vallee de Joux.

Some would be surprised to know that these founders worked from a somewhat symbiotic relationship– The technical productions of the luxury timepieces were left to Jules-Louis Audemars while Edward-Auguste Piguet was in charge of the business aspects of the company.
