Environmental and Socially Ethical Manufacturing Standards:

Wintour watches are manufactured in full compliance with Swiss standards of environmental sustainability. Compared with its neighbors, Switzerland has very high requirements regarding environmental compatibility in the manufacturing process. Swiss legislation requires that pollutants be recycled completely and that the release of pollutants into the environment through residual waste be avoided. Swiss authorities continually review compliance with the law and ensure that hazardous waste is turned into valuable raw material, which can then be returned to the production cycle. This cycle conserves resources and is sustainable. All diamonds used in Wintour watches are natural and conflict free, purchased from mines adhering to the Kimberly Process. The gold supplier for Wintour Watches is a member of the Council for Responsible Jewellery Practices and an ISO 9001:2000 certified company. The precious metal assayer’s laboratory is in accreditation according to ISO 17025:2005 standards.
