The SIGMA heritage
SIGMA has a long history of high-quality watchmaking that can be traced back to 1890. However, the brand name was not commercially registered until 1900 as Fabrique Sigma (by Frey & Co) in Bienne, Switzerland. Later to be known as Montre Sigma.
​
Prior to Lucien Lévy took control of Montre Sigma in 1935, it was under the ownership of Dreyfus & Co. The Lévy and Dreyfus families had close ties and were both influential and wealthy families at the time.
In 1952 Roger Lévy inherited the business from his father Lucien Lévy. Roger would a few years later play a key role in the cooperation with Alexandre Valentin (VALMON) and establishment of the watchmaker association United Orbit.

The VALMON heritage
In 1954, VALMON was commercial registered by Alexandre Valentin, in Genève, Switzerland. Valmon produced an extensive variety of watches, most of which were high-quality timepieces that continue to function to this day. Each timepiece was driven by a reliable Swiss mechanical movement, while the watch cases were primarily crafted from stainless steel or gold.
​
VALMON swiftly achieved commercial success both domestically and internationally by focusing on quality and timeless design. With this success, Alexandre Valentin secured a business address on Place de la Fusterie in Genève – a street location that now hosts some of the most prestigious Swiss watch brands and their flagship stores.
​
During the 1950s, VALMON's production capacity could not keep up with the growing network of dealers and the increasing market demand. At the same time, Montre SIGMA had a watch production capacity that exceeded the demand. This situation led Montre Sigma and Valmon to join forces, creating a partnership that would be beneficial for both of them in decades to come.
