History

Thumb
Auguste L'Epée

In 1839, Auguste L’Epée (1798–1875) and Pierre-Henri Paur (from Geneva) founded the L’Epée Manufacture in Sainte-Suzanne, Doubs Department, located in eastern France. At the time, the manufacturer produced horological products and music boxes.[2][3]

Patents under the L’Epée name include an 1888 music box[4] and a 1935 mechanical clock movement.[5]

Swiza SA, which already owned Swiza 1904 and Matthew Norman, bought the L’Epée brand in 2008.[6]

In 2024, L’Epée was acquired by luxury conglomerate LVMH under its watches division.[7]
