Pascal Raffy, owner of the House of Bovet 1822, and Bovet’s artisans celebrated Bovet’s 198th anniversary of engineering brilliance and artistry of human watchmaking
The House of Bovet was officially founded on 1 May 1822 in London, the predominent location for watchmaking at the time.
However, the history of Bovet actually started many years earlier, when Jean-Frédéric Bovet, a renowned Swiss watchmaker, took the decision to send his watchmaker sons, Frédéric, Alphonse, and Edouard, to London, to officially register their house as a London-operating business.
