Explore the heritage and legacy of Richelieu Swiss Watches, a testament to Swiss watchmaking and timeless craftsmanship.
History
OUR HISTORY
A Swiss Story Since 1966
Born in 1966 in Tramelan, a city located in the heart of the Swiss Jura, Richelieu has always believed that a watch is more than a way to measure time.
It is a reflection of personality. A symbol of elegance. A companion to lifeās most meaningful moments.
Founded by FranƧois-Joseph Pelletier, Richelieu began its journey with a simple ambition: to create Swiss watches that combine quality, style and timeless appeal. From the very beginning, the brand drew on the expertise and craftsmanship of one of the worldās most renowned watchmaking regions.
Over the decades, Richelieu has evolved with changing styles and generations while remaining true to its origins. Each collection reflects a balance between classic elegance and contemporary design, creating watches made not only to be worn, but to become part of a story.
A New Chapter
In 2015, Richelieu joined Montres Edox & Vista SA, opening a new chapter in its history.
Building on nearly five decades of heritage, the brand continued to evolve while preserving the values that have defined it since the beginning: Swiss craftsmanship, attention to detail and a passion for timeless design.
Today, Richelieu continues its journey from the Swiss Jura, creating elegant timepieces designed to accompany lifeās special occasions.
A Gift for Every Moment
Some moments deserve to be remembered.
A birthday. An anniversary. A graduation. A new beginning. Or simply a moment shared with someone special.
At Richelieu, we believe that the perfect gift is one that carries meaning long after the moment has passed.
For nearly six decades, our watches have accompanied moments, memories and milestones. Today, that story continues.
Richelieu. A gift for every moment.
