برند:
Louis-ulysse chopard (1836-1915), the son of a farmer from sonvilier, quickly conquered switzerland and the world at the age of 24. The artisan watchmaker created works of art with innovative designs, which early on helped him export to such illustrious places as the court of tsar nicholas ii of russia. Qualities like precision and reliability were very sought-after characteristics in watches, dating all the way back to the 19th century. With unique chronometers and pocket watches, louis-ulysse chopard aimed to fulfill and exceed these “desires”. Thanks to its superb timekeepers, chopard forged itself a reputation for reliable and high quality watches made in switzerland. From the start, chopard won two very prestigious commissions, becoming official provider of watches for «tir fédéral» and the swiss railway company. Louis-ulysse chopard travelled to russia, making his way through poland, hungary and the baltic states. Tsar nicholas ii of russia was one of his clients. He also struck business with a number of scandinavian retailers who self-branded his timepieces. Chopard watches thus penetrated the international market.
