Montblanc's Manufactures:
two centres of excellence in Le Locle and Villeret
Deep in a valley in the Jura, far from the frenzy of everyday life in the modern world, Montblanc set up its two
Manufactures. One, situated in Le Locle, is considered the "Watches and Quality" centre of excellence, while
the other, in Villeret, is the "Movements" Centre of Excellence.
In Le Locle, a traditional Swiss chalet harbours the "Watches and Quality" business, and adheres to an
unalterable philosophy: combining Swiss hand-crafted watchmaking with cutting-edge technology to create
outstanding masterpieces.
Their passion for detail is such that a perfect finish is given even to the invisible parts of a watch movement.
The design, development and assembly of every watch are performed with meticulous care in the workshops of
the Montblanc Manufacture in Le Locle.
In addition, the immense laboratory tests all watches to the highest degree of accuracy and quality required by
Montblanc's demanding standards, to create watches of the most extreme accuracy, durability and perfection.
True to its aim of maintaining Swiss watchmaking at its highest level, Montblanc presents its exclusive
collections of watches that reveal all the talent and devotion of the master watchmakers of Le Locle and the
pride that they take in their art.
