Niton was founded in 1919 by Auguste Jeannet and former Vacheron & Constantin employees Alfred Bourquin and Edouard Morel. Based in Geneva, the Maison created beautifully crafted and highly innovative movements, including jumping hour pieces.
In 2026, Yvan Ketterer and Leopolodo Celi revived the esteemed brand, unveiling its inaugural creation, the Niton Prima. The model features a new ‘in-house Geneva Seal grade calibre’ and is produced ‘in a strictly limited edition of two series of 19 pieces’.
