Later, he was even appointed Ma\u00eetre horloger du Locle, a high honor at that time. In 1815, the fourth generation of the watchmaker family joined forces with Auguste Leuba from Buttes in Val-de-Travers. Henry-August traveled around the world - from Germany to Russia, through Cuba to New York, from Brazil to Chile - to establish their own workshop's finely-made pocket watches in remote markets. Fritz Favre was the successor to his father and successfully pursued his expansion strategy in Europe, America, and Asia. In 1865, he traveled to India and launched his brand on the subcontinent, which was to quickly develop into an important market for Favre-Leuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Monochrome-Watches-II.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>\u00a9 via Monochrome Watches<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After the company headquarters were relocated from Le Locle to Geneva, Henri Favre-Leuba (1865-1961) assumed leadership of the family business and continued to steadily grow the brand. He remained president of the board of directors until his death. During his era, Favre-Leuba launched the first mono-pusher chronographs, just when wristwatches started to supersede pocket watches. After WWII, Favre-Leuba was able to count on a stable position in India thanks to their own office in Bombay. Step by step, the family company won back its position and relevance in other watch markets around the globe with branches in Hamburg, London, Rangoon, Karachi, Singapore, New York and others. They secured a well-functioning distribution with first-class customer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"601\" height=\"435\" src=\"https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VintageKrono.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VintageKrono.jpg 601w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VintageKrono-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artworth.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VintageKrono-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 1950s, Favre-Leuba introduced the manufacture caliber FL101, which was used in the Sea Chief, <a href=\"https:\/\/favre-leuba.com\/watches\/raider\/sea-king\">Sea King<\/a>and Sea Raider watch models.

This achievement was followed by the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/favre-leuba.com\/watches\/raider\/bivouac-9000\">Bivouac<\/a><\/strong> which was released two years later.
