Since the launch of its first watch model in 1975, Maurice Lacroix has developed to become a sought-after Manufacture brand. With its own factories producing complex components for mechanical calibers, Maurice Lacroix joined the exclusive league of Swiss watchmakers at the end of 2006. Thanks to continued innovative development both in technical fields and in design, Maurice Lacroix has registered several patents and trademarks. The Mémoire 1, the first mechanical watch with a memory which was officially presented at Baselworld 2008, gained worldwide acclaim.
Maurice Lacroix is one of the few independent watchmakers and employs only 300 people worldwide, around 200 of whom are based at the international head office in Zürich and the production facilities in Saignelégier and Montfaucon in Switzerland.
