History of the Windsor and Jagot Watch Company
The Jagot Watch Company was an American watch importer and distributor active primarily in the early to mid-20th century, specializing in affordable Swiss-sourced timepieces. It is best known for its association with the “Windsor” line of pocket and wristwatches, which were marketed as elegant yet budget-friendly options for the American middle class. The company played a modest role in the post-WWI watch boom, importing movements and cases from Switzerland and assembling or rebranding them for U.S. consumers. Jagot is not a major horological innovator but a classic example of the era’s import-driven watch trade, often confused with similar-sounding brands like “Jacot” (a reputable Swiss case maker) or “Fagot” (a common misreading of its stylized logo).
