CYMA
At the cutting Edge of Watchmaking-Where it has been and always will be...
In the distant past, the high valleys of the Swiss Jura Mountains were covered with impenetrably dense forest. Monks were the first to begin clearing them. Hunters, woodcutters, and peasants soon followed, settling in the shelter of these valleys, buried for more than half the year beneath deep snow.
Life was harsh and difficult, with unforgiving winter months. Industrious, ingenious and inventive, they gradually grew more skilled at their work, forging elaborate wheelworks while learning the rudiments of movement and the working of mechanisms. They began to make intricate automata, which eventually let to the art of clockmaking.
Daniel Jeanrichard was born in the small town of Le Locle in 1665. A pioneer of the modern watch industry, he channeled the activities of the peasant-mechanics into the art of watchmaking. These watchmakers made every part of their tiny masterpieces from start to finish. They did everything themselves, from designing the plates, to filing the pinions and wheel, to fashioning the cases.
