Édouard Bovet
Édouard Bovet (1797–1849) was a Swiss watchmaker and founder of the Bovet Fleurier watch company.〔(Conso - Marque Bovet ) "1818 : Édouard Bovet arrive à Canton, le seul port chinois ouvert aux étrangers et vend quatre montres de 10.000 francs. 1822 : Édouard et Alphonse Bovet créent la société de montres Bovet."〕
==Life==
Édouard Bovet was born in Fleurier in Neuchâtel, the son of Jean Frédéric Bovet, in 1797. Although the "''Genève''" tag is virtually compulsory for Swiss prestige name watches in the highest price bracket, it is the lesser known place name "''Fleurier''" that graces the watches from the Bovet company in Geneva: for the Bovet originated from this village in the Val-de-Travers, to the west of Neuchâtel. Watchmaking was introduced there between 1730 and 1740 by David Vaucher, probably a pupil of the legendary Daniel JeanRichard. The number of watchmakers in the Val-de-Travers grew very rapidly in the first half of the 19th century. The lace making that had provided work for a good third of the people living in the valley had been replaced by the much lower cost production on jacquard machines in France and Flanders.
Four more sons and a daughter were born in the following years. After completing his apprenticeship as a watchmaker, Edouard Bovet and two of his brothers moved to London, then the center of watch assembly and the watch trade in 1814.〔 Reyne Haines ''Vintage Wristwatches'' 2010 - Page 27 "BOVET This maker was founded in London in 1822 by Edouard Bovet, the son of watchmaker Jean-Frederic Bovet. Edouard studied watch making in London in 1814.〕
