Celebrating watch enthusiasts

The year 2012 is and will remain something special in the history books of DuBois et fils: Back then we pressed the start button on the first crowdfunding in the watch industry. A risk with (positive) consequences!

On that beautiful late summer evening of August 22nd 2022, we took a look back on the first years together with our supporters, co-owners and interested guests. As befits an anniversary, we summarized what has driven us in recent years and of course also reported on current watches and projects.

Growing shareholder base at Switzerland's oldest watch factory

Exactly 10 years ago we started our crowd investment, which not only brought us new shareholders, but also the basis for our work. Today we are richer in experience and see our watches on wrists across the world. The DuBois et fils base is made up of more than 1,000 shareholders in over 30 countries worldwide.
