Favre-Leuba is a Swiss luxury wristwatch manufacturer headquartered in Grenchen, Switzerland, and formerly a pioneer in watch design, manufacturing and distribution. The brand was established in 1737, following the registration of Abraham Favre as a watchmaker. One of his descendants, Henry-Augustus Favre, collaborated with Auguste Leuba, which led to the creation of the brand name Favre-Leuba in 1815, but the company's name was sold in 1985 due to the ongoing quartz crisis, which made manufacturing watches more difficult. Favre-Leuba has collaborated and supported numerous mountaineers, as their Bivouac watches feature an altimeter and an aneroid barometer. Favre-Leuba is the second-oldest watch brand in the world, with Blancpain having been founded two years prior. From 2011 to 2023, the brand was owned by Titan Company, the watch manufacturing company of the Tata Group. The brand was later acquired by Silvercity Brands. As of 2024, Favre-Leuba is now owned by Indian watch retailer Ethos Ltd., following a relaunch of the Swiss company.
