**JeanRichard** is a Swiss watch manufacturer, currently part of the [[Kering]] group.

===== History =====
Since [[1988]] this watch manufacturer is in the possession of the owner of [[Girard-Perregaux]], Luigi Macaluso. It is named after [[JeanRichard, Daniel|Daniel JeanRichard]], the founder of the watch industry in the Swiss canton [[Neuchâtel]].

[[1994]] the company gained attention with the youthful collection //TV Screen//, whose models are reminiscent of a traditional television housing form. In the same year the company moved from [[Le Brassus]] to [[La Chaux-de-Fonds]].

Since [[2003]] the company is directed by Massimo Macaluso, the son of the owner of [[Girard-Perregaux]], Luigi Macaluso. He shortened the company name to the handier term **Jean Richard**.

With the [[self-winding]] movement JR 1000 JeanRichard since [[2004]] has a completely in-house manufactured movement. Based on this movement are a number of variants, eg JR 10RJ with [[power reserve indicator]] and date, JR 1010 with [[moon phase]] indication and also a [[chronograph]] module.

Well-known model series are 

  *Haute Horlogerie

Bressel was the nickname of [[JeanRichard, Daniel|Daniel JeanRichard]], named after the small town where he was born.
