====== Jura triangle ====== The **Jura triangle** is a [[Swiss]] watchmaking region. It is a rough triangle bounded by [[La Chaux-de-Fonds]] to the West, along the Suze River to [[Bienne-Biel]] to the East, and [[Saignelégier]] to the North. La Chaux-de-Fonds and Bienne-Biel are sometimes not considered to be part of the triangle since they are larger cities with many large manufacturers, while most Jura triangle towns and manufacturers are much smaller. The Jura triangle crosses Canton boundaries, from the [[Canton of Neuchâtel]] to the West, the [[Canton of Bern]] to the East, and the [[Canton of Jura]] to the North. The major watchmaking towns in the Jura triangle are as follows * [[Canton of Neuchâtel]] * [[La Chaux-de-Fonds]] (and perhaps West to [[Le Locle]]) - [[TAG Heuer]] * [[Fontainemelon]] - [[Frédéric Japy]] * [[Canton of Bern]] * [[Sonvilier]] - [[Chopard]] (now [[Geneva]]) * [[Saint-Imier]] - [[Longines]], [[Heuer]] (now [[La Chaux-de-Fonds]]), [[Breitling]] (now [[Grenchen]]), [[COSC]] testing facility, [[Auguste Agassiz]], [[Moeris]], [[Flückiger & Fils]]/[[Patek Philippe]] * [[Villeret]] - [[Minerva]]/[[Montblanc Manufacture]] (former [[Blancpain]] building), [[Nivarox-FAR]] (former [[Cartier]] building) * [[Cormoret]] * [[Courtelary]] - [[Langel]] * [[Cortébert]] - [[Cortébert]] * [[Corgémont]] * [[Sonceboz]] * [[Tavannes]] - [[Tavannes]]/[[Cyma]], [[Roventa-Henex]] * [[Les Reussilles]] - [[Soprod]] * [[Tramelan]] - [[Armand Nicolet]], [[Auguste Reymond]], [[Record]], [[Horia]], [[Progress Watch]]/[[STT]]/[[Dimier 1738]] ([[Bovet]]) * [[Bienne-Biel]] (and perhaps east to [[Brügg]]) * [[Canton of Jura]] * [[Les Bois]] * [[Le Boéchet]] - [[Rudis Sylva]] * [[Le Creux-des-Biches]] * [[Le Breuleux]] - [[Richard Mille]] * [[Le Noirmont]] - [[Paul Picot]] * [[Saignelégier]] - [[Maurice Lacroix]], [[Aerowatch]], [[Soprod]] {{tag>Jura_triangle Canton_of_Neuchâtel Canton_of_Bern Canton_of_Jura Swiss_watchmaking_regions}}
