    FOR THE SECOND CONSECUTIVE YEAR, SOWIND GROUP, THE COLLECTIVE OF TWO INDEPENDENT LUXURY WATCH BRANDS GIRARD-PERREGAUX AND ULYSSE NARDIN, HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF SWITZERLAND’S BEST MANAGED COMPANIES.

    Sowind Group, the collective of two independent luxury watch brands, Girard-Perregaux and Ulysse Nardin, proudly announces its recognition by Deloitte Private as one of Switzerland’s Best Managed Companies of 2025 for the second consecutive year. In 2024, Sowind Group became the first player in Switzerland’s luxury industry to receive this distinction.

    The award underscores the Group’s excellence in management, driven by a strong entrepreneurial mindset and a continued focus and adaptability in a changing global environment.

    Girard-Perregaux and Ulysse Nardin: 400 years of watchmaking mastery.


    Nestled in the Swiss Jura mountains, Girard-Perregaux and Ulysse Nardin combine over 400 years of technical mastery and craftsmanship. As among the oldest independent and integrated high-end watch manufactures, they have significantly contributed to the watchmaking industry’s progress, both from a technical and design aspect. The Manufactures have also consistently nurtured the local talents that helped build their global reputation, reinforcing their deep connection to the region and its centuries-old savoir-faire. 

    Inspired by creative freedom, about 400 devoted artisans and experts of the Manufactures share a passion for innovation and excellence, creating audacious and modern timepieces with high horological content.
