Tracing its roots to
a workshop founded in 1860 by Edouard Heuer.
Edouard Heuer
was passionate about precision. When he founded his workshop in
1860, he had only one aim: taking time measurement to greater
heights. Since then, the company has always been in the avant-garde
of watchmaking, whether in terms of technology, the choice of
materials or design. From the first patent for a chronograph
mechanism in 1882 to the 1998 launch of the Kirium Ti5 in grade 5
titanium and carbon fibre; from the first chronograph measuring
100ths of a second (1916) to the first analog display quartz
chronograph (1983), not forgetting the first automatic chronograph
with a microrotor (1969), Heuer wrote some of the greatest chapters
in watchmaking history.
