HALDIMANN

Haldimann is the oldest family-run independent Swiss watch manufacture still owned by the family that gives the company its name. The benefits of full creative freedom, of maintaining the highest quality standards and of keeping all production exclusively in-house have been evident in every single timepiece and movement we have produced over the centuries.

A family tradition of innovation since 1642. It was father and son, Ulrich and Hans Haldimann, who established this tradition. A Haldimann philosophy and mentality has been cultivated over the centuries, in unison with the formation of Switzerland. Within this philosophy Haldimann distinguishes twelve aspects that they have been cultivating in particular. These aspects are represented in the brand logo with twelve phases of the moon.

“We want to work at the very limit of what the human hand is capable of.”

As a manufacture, they can only do this. In the true sense of that word, by using machines and instruments that “lend a hand” to the hand.

Each timepiece takes a long time to create, and this builds a close relationship between the watchmaker and “their” watch. It is this relationship that brings the watch to life. This vitality is then transferred to the owner. The relationship we build with our creations is at the core of what we do. The technical means by which Haldimann builds this relationship are purposely kept in background, yet their essence is woven into the work. This approach is what makes each of Haldimann Horology’s creations unique.
