43 Lip
Iconic French watch manufacturer, the most spectacular victim of the collapse of the French watch industry in the early 1970s. In 1973, the Lip factory in Besançon became a symbol of worker contestation; employees refused to accept the closure of the plant, and took it over in an act of defiance. Watch production continued for several weeks, until the plant was stormed by riot police. 100,000 people gathered in Besançon on 29th September, in support of the workers, but eventually the plant was closed down and sold to businessman Claude Neuschwander. Production started up again, but the company was unable to compete against cheap eastern imports, and went into liquidation in 1976. Later, the brand name was bought, and Lipwatches are again produced - but mostly in China. A few are produced in France, but not in Besançon. -
