Jaquet Droz was founded in 1738 when Pierre Jaquet-Droz opened a workshop in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. Following the study of physics and mathematics, Pierre focused on horology and by 1747 his clocks already had automatic chiming and many played music. Since 1738, Jaquet Droz has perpetuated the spirit of innovation and aesthetic refinement of its founder Pierre Jaquet-Droz.
