The company is located in the Jura Region, at the very heart of the Swiss watchmaking industry. It is this region, the cradle of micro-technology and watchmaking know-how, that provides most of the component parts that make up Richelieu timepieces and which allow the brand to carry the "Swiss made" label. Every Richelieu watches are subjected to a series of very strict and meticulous inspections in order to guarantee a quality and finish that is faultless.
