Break-in at DuBois et fils

Over the Easter weekend, our headquarters in Basel were broken into. During this burglary, the thieves stole all the sample collections and prototypes. These watches all bear the limited edition number 00 of XX or no limited edition number at all. This makes these watches very recognisable as stolen goods.

BE CAREFUL WHEN BUYING DUBOIS ET FILS WATCHES

Do not purchase a DuBois et fils watch that does not have a clearly marked limitation number. This number can be found on the back of the watch at the bottom of the case.

Stolen watches are visible on our website in the online shop and the limited edition number of the product is marked in yellow. Should you recognise such products on the other sales platforms, please contact us: info@duboisfils.swiss.
