Buren
Buren is a Swiss watch brand that was founded in 1898 in Buren an der Aare, Switzerland. The brand is known for its high-quality and innovative timepieces that have been popular among watch enthusiasts for over a century.
In the 1920s, Buren became one of the leading manufacturers of automatic wristwatches, introducing the first automatic watch movement with micro-rotor technology. In the 1950s and 1960s, Buren continued to innovate, producing some of the thinnest and most precise automatic movements of the time.
Buren was acquired by Hamilton Watch Company in the 1960s and continued to produce watches until the 1970s, when the quartz crisis led to a decline in mechanical watch sales. The brand was eventually sold to the Swatch Group in the 2000s and has since been revived as a brand within the group, producing both mechanical and quartz watches.
