Its place in the register, counted
The register's Switzerland cohort runs to sixteen — the third-largest national group here — and it is one. Its stablemates here are Harry Winston, Blancpain and Breguet — four Swatch Group houses in all. Haute Horology holds eighteen houses here, and this is the 6th of them. It is the 21st-oldest house in the register. It is one of thirty-six maisons in this register founded before 1900. Between Rémy Martin (1724) and Genesis (2015), the two ends of the register, it falls at 1848. Five countries are represented in Haute Horology here, and this house files to Switzerland.
