History of the Ebel luxury watch manufacturer (source: Wikipedia):


Ebel sprung-cap wristwatch in a twenty-dollar gold coin from 1897 of the usa
Ebel is a traditional Swiss watch brand, which today manufactures products in the middle and once in the highest price segment of the top class.

Founding history
The brand name is a neologism created from the names of the married couple and entrepreneurs Eugene Blum and Alice Lévy (Eugene Blum et Lévy), who founded the company on July 15, 1911 in La Chaux-de-Fonds.[1] Ebel was one of the nine watch companies in Jewish family ownership in La Chaux-de-Fonds between 1890 and 1914.[2][3]

Eugène Blum was responsible for the technical side of the brand development and Alice Levy was responsible for the aesthetic aspects.

The prize certificate for a patented ring watch from 1914 shows the social restrictions and the lack of recognition for women at the time: the prize was issued to "Messieurs Blum & Cie, Fabrique Ebel La Chaux-de-Fonds" (Messrs Blum & Co.)[2].

Passing on
In 1929, Charles, the son of Blum and Levy, took over the management of the company. He expanded the company's distribution network by extending it abroad, including to the United States. Under the management of Blum's grandson Pierre-Alain, the company took off after the early 1970s, producing wristwatches for Cartier.

In the 1980s, the "Line 1911", named after the year it was founded, enjoyed great success.

The traditional brand was taken over by the French luxury goods group lvmh in the fall of 1999 and then by the US group Movado (which had also started out as a Jewish company in La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1881) in 2004.
