Swiss fine watchmaking and jewelry manufacture since 1775
Breguet operates a vertically integrated watchmaking business anchored in Switzerland, with manufacturing and retail operations across Europe, Asia, and beyond. The tech stack is enterprise-grade but conservative—SAP, Office, Adobe, CAD tools (CATIA, Alphacam), CNC—reflecting a capital-intensive, precision-manufacturing model where spreadsheets and ERP remain central. Hiring has accelerated with a skew toward sales (7 roles) and manufacturing (5), while pain points cluster around boutique sales targets, VIP retention, production robustness, and CNC optimization, suggesting the company is scaling customer-facing operations alongside operational tightening in the workshop.
Montres Breguet is a privately held Swiss manufacturer of haute horlogerie (fine watches) and haute joaillerie (fine jewelry), operating from its base in L'Abbaye, Vaud. The company traces its heritage to 1775 and Abraham-Louis Breguet, credited with foundational innovations including the tourbillon. Today, Breguet maintains a dual focus: perpetuating mechanical watchmaking traditions while serving a global clientele through boutique retail and VIP customer programs. The organization spans manufacturing, sales, and customer care functions across Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Austria, China, and Singapore. Production involves both assembly of complex mechanical movements and restoration services, supported by CNC machining and CAD-driven design workflows.
Active projects include VIP customer retention programs, boutique visual merchandising, manufacturing process robustness, CNC optimization, customer care activations, and localized market strategies (notably for Germany).
Enterprise tools (SAP, Microsoft Office, Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel), design software (CATIA, Alphacam), creative assets (Adobe Cloud), analytics (Power BI), and CNC machining systems.
