ANGELUS

The manufacturer Stolz Frères SA was founded in 1891 in Le Locle by the brothers Gustav and Albert Stolz. Initially, the focus was on pendulums and case watches. The brand name used was Angelus.

In the thirties and forties of the 20th century, Angelus gained a good reputation primarily for its chronographs. These were equipped with in-house manufacture movements.

Angelus chronographs remain highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs.
