Created over half a century ago in La Chaux-de-Fonds at the initiative of Swiss watch brands, the COSC was established by five cantons (Bern, Geneva, Neuchâtel, Solothurn and Vaud) and the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry. It was born from the ambition to create a neutral, independent and universally recognized institution to certify the legendary precision of Swiss watch movements.
