About the Difor Suisse brand:
Founded in 1934 in Besançon, Difor Suisse quickly distinguished itself in the Swiss watchmaking field thanks to its know-how and passion for excellence. The 1940s saw the brand consolidate its reputation by developing high-precision watches, highly prized by professionals and watchmaking enthusiasts. In 1952, Difor Suisse launched its first chronograph, thus revolutionizing the mechanical watch market.
The 1950s and 1960s marked the golden age of Difor Suisse, which continued its rise by developing ever more efficient and innovative chronographs. Thanks to the exceptional quality of its French or Swiss mechanical movements, the brand conquered new markets and built a loyal customer base seeking elegant and reliable watches.
In 1985, Difor Suisse was acquired by a group of investors.
