Representing the heraldic crest of Geneva, the Poinçon de Genève is one of the oldest horological independent certifications. Created in 1886, it is governed by rigorous criteria encompassing all technical aspects, functional characteristics as well as the aesthetic of the watch. It is only awarded to Chopard and a few select watchmakers.
Encompassing all technical aspects, functional and aesthetical characteristics of the watch, the Poinçon de Genève is a guarantee of provenance, craftsmanship, a token of quality and exceptional expertise for mechanical watches assembled, adjusted and tested in Canton Geneva.
