History of the brands

Of American origin, which is unusual for a watch manufacturer in Switzerland, Fabrique Electa began its life in Geneva and then moved to La Chaux-de-Fonds, which is also unusual in this direction!
This American-Swiss manufacturer from the very early 20th century produced high quality watches, and created the Avia brand, taken over much later by Degoumois & Cie.
A major player in Swiss chronographs and counters in the 20th century, Léonidas is known today only to a handful of collectors and vintage watch enthusiasts.
