Haas Neveux was founded in 1848 by Benjamin Haas, 1901it was renamed to Haas Neveux & Cie; they are one of the oldest Swiss watch manufacturers. Haas' signature has always been one of the most sought-after, thanks to the company's impeccable standards. In 1873 Benjamin Haas patented a winding mechanism. The idea was to use the energy generated when closing the front cover to wind the watch. One of their most remarkable creations was the first ultra-thin watch launched at the end of the 19th century, the movement was only 2mm thick. Haas Neveux & Cie. was at the forefront of high-precision chronometer manufacture and won prizes in the Geneva Observatory competitions. Since its foundation, Haas Neveux & Cie. has won the highest prizes at international exhibitions. Reference: Kathleen H. Pritchard, Swiss Timepiece Makers, 1775-1975. Page H2-3 "
