Ikhulu elinamashumi alithoba anesihlanu eminyaka yesiko kunye nemvelaphi, ibali leewotshi zokuqala ze-buffet

Kanye kwiminyaka eyi-195 eyadlulayo, ngoMeyi 1822, XNUMX, iNkampani yeBOVET yahlanganiswa ngokusemthethweni eLondon.

Nangona kunjalo, ibali laqala kwiminyaka eliqela ngaphambili, xa uJean-Friedrich Buffett wagqiba kwelokuba athumele oonyana bakhe uFrederic, uAlphonse noEdouard ababesebenza kwishishini lokubukela eLondon - eyona ndawo yayiyeyona ndawo yorhwebo yokwenza iiwotshi ngelo xesha - ukuba bafunde ukurhweba. .

Ngowe-1818, uEdouard Bovet wemka eLondon esiya eCanton ukuze abe nguvulindlela ekuthengiseni iiwotshi ezipokothweni. Iiwotshi zeFleurier eziveliswe ngabantakwethu bakwaBovet kungekudala zaphumelela ukunconywa nguMlawuli waseTshayina, iinkundla zakhe kunye nezihandiba zaseTshayina, ezathi kungekudala zaba ngabalandeli abazimiseleyo kule ndalo.

Bangqineke benempumelelo kangangokuba kwangowe-1820, iMaison yaqalisa ukuvelisa iiwotshi zayo eFleurier ngelixa iqhubeka nemisebenzi yayo yokurhweba nokongamela umsebenzi wayo wolawulo ukusuka eLondon. U-Edward wafudukela eChina, apho wayehlala khona de kwangowe-1830 ukuze aqinisekise ukuba iimfuno kunye neminqweno yabaqokeleli bewotshi yakhe zahlangatyezwa ngokusondeleyo kangangoko kunokwenzeka.

Ekugqibeleni, ngoMeyi 1, 1822, izivumelwano zokuqala zenkampani zabhalwa zaza zabhaliswa eLondon.

Abazalwana bakwa-Bovet baqhubela phambili babhala ezinye zezahluko ezikhulu kwimbali yokwenza iiwotshi ezilungileyo ngokuphakamisa ubugcisa bokuhombisa ukuya kumgangatho ohleli ungenakuthelekiswa nanamhlanje. Kangangenkulungwane, yonke intlambo ejikeleze ilali yaseFleurier (eyaziwa ngokuba yiVal de Travers) ivune iziqhamo zothando lwaseTshayina lweewotshi. Ngombulelo kubuchule kunye nempumelelo yabazalwana baseBuffet, ishishini lokwenyani lengingqi lazalwa.

Kude kube sekupheleni kolawulo lwabo, abazalwana bakwaBovet baphumelele ekuboniseni eyona nto iphambili yobugcisa bokuhombisa ukwenza iiwotshi ngelixa beqhubeka nokuvelisa izinto ezintsha ngaxeshanye. Banikwa imbeko ngobume betyala elibonakalayo ngasemva, umzekelo, eliye lavumela abaqokeleli bewotshi ukuba bancome iintshukumo ezimbejembeje njenganini na ngaphambili.

Kuyo yonke inkulungwane yamashumi amabini, iBOVET yahlulwa ngezinto ezininzi ezintsha kunye namalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza. Iwotshi yepokotho ye-BOVET eyaqala malunga nowe-1920 ibambe irekhodi elipheleleyo lokuzimela kunye nogcino lwamandla lweentsuku ezingama-360. Ezinye iimpumelelo eziphawulekayo zibandakanya ilungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza ka-1930 kwiwotshi emileyo eyavula indlela yenkqubo ye-Amadeo®, kunye ne-Mono-Ratrapante Chronograph esixhobo sayo esilula nesithembekileyo esafundiswayo kwikharityhulam yazo zonke izikolo zaseSwitzerland.

Nje ukuba uPascal Raffy athathe iintambo kwinkampani yeBOVET ngo-2001, iMaison yathethathethana kumashumi amabini eminyaka okuqala enkulungwane yama-XNUMX isebenzisa iinqobo ezisemgangathweni ezifanayo kunye nomoya owawukhokela indlela yayo ngenkulungwane ye-XNUMX. Kwaye kwiminyaka elishumi elinesihlanu nje, le ndlu iye yanika abavelisi ababini

Ukushukuma kwayo, ukucofa kunye netyala kuqinisekisa umgangatho ophakamileyo, abayile kwaye baphuhlise imeko ye-iconic ye-Amadeo®, efake isicelo samalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza phantse ishumi elinesihlanu, kwaye yenze iicalibers ezininzi zewotshi ezitsha ngokupheleleyo.

Ukubhiyozela le minyaka, uPascal Raffy wagqiba ekubeni agxininise ukuqokelela kwe-2017 kumxholo wendawo, ongenakuhlukaniswa ngokupheleleyo kwingcamango yexesha.

Ngeekhalenda, iiwotshi ezinemisebenzi yeenkwenkwezi, kunye nezixhobo ezifana neglasi ye-Aventurine okanye i-meteorite, umbandela uvuselela intanda-bulumko ye-horology enika imbeko kubaqokeleli bewotshi ababeke ithemba labo kwiiwotshi ze-BOVET ukusukela ngo-1822.
