4 | HISTOIRE

Le Lo c L e d u XVII

a u XVIII

s Iè c L e

Imaginez les hauts plateaux isolés du Pays de Neuchâtel,

culminant à plus de 1000 mètres d’altitude. En ces

temps-là, les seuls moyens de locomotion reliant ce haut

pays au reste du monde sont les charrettes tirées par les

chevaux ainsi que la marche. Le climat y est austère, les

hivers rigoureux.

Dans ce monde où l’on chassait l’ours, le loup et le sanglier,

les conditions d’existence sont difficiles et les valeurs

humaines prennent le relais : l’entraide, la générosité pour

autrui sont les valeurs qui ont permis aux premiers habitants

de développer leurs communautés.

A cette époque, la ville du Locle fait partie de la Principauté

de Neuchâtel, possession des Rois de Prusse Frédéric 1

puis Frédéric-Guillaume II.

L’h o r L o g e r Ie d u XVII

a u XVIII

s Iè c L e

Alors qu’au XVII

siècle l’horlogerie est principalement

française, allemande et anglaise, celle-ci connaît une

rapide éclosion en Suisse au début du XVIII

siècle.

Sitôt après Genève, dans les années 1700, ce sont les

Montagnes Neu-châteloises qui s’ouvrent à cette nouvelle

activité.

Le forgeron Daniel Jean Richard (1665-1741) est reconnu

comme le père fondateur de l’horlogerie suisse.

5HISTOIRE |

C’est lui qui a introduit ce métier dès 1705 à La Sagne,

puis au Locle.

L’horlogerie vient de s’affirmer et s’implante définitivement

dans la contrée. Elle permet aux Montagnards et paysans

d’entrevoir de meilleures conditions de vie.

h o r L o g e r

L’expérience des métiers horlogers est vieille de 30 ans

lorsque Abraham-Louis Perrelet vient au monde le 9 janvier

1729 au Locle.

Son père, Daniel Perrelet, est à la fois agriculteur et

charpentier. Au cours des longs hivers des Montagnes

Neuchâteloises, il fabrique des outils, dont certains, d’une

extrême finesse, sont destinés aux horlogers. Abraham-

Louis, comme tout enfant démuni de l’époque rend

quelques services en aidant ses parents dans les travaux

de la campagne et de l’atelier.

A l’âge de 20 ans, voyant que l’horlogerie prend de l’ampleur

dans les Montagnes Neuchâteloises, il abandonne ces

modes-tes travaux pour se lancer pleinement dans ce

nouvel artisanat fascinant.

La première contrainte à laquelle il est confronté est celle

du manque d’outils adéquats. Il s’attache donc à combler

cette lacune en mettant au point un certain nombre d’outils,

comme l’outil à planter ou l’outil à arrondir.

Il innove, développe et met au point une série de nouvelles

combinaisons pour améliorer la marche des garde-temps.

Il est ainsi le premier, au Locle, à fabriquer des montres

What is a quartz movement? Verified

Watches and clocks with a quartz movement are driven by a battery. This sends an electric current through quartz crystals that will vibrate. These vibrations are passed on to the movement. Because the vibrations have a fixed frequency, watches and clocks with a quartz movement are extremely precise.
