Henri later founded a watchmaking company in Tavannes, which took the name of the town. In 1870 master watchmaker Henri-Frédéric Sandoz (usually just Henri Sandoz born 1851 Le Locle, died 1913 Tavannes) founded a watch manufacturing company in Le Locle, Switzerland, in his own name: "Henri Sandoz and Co." Tavannes is in a French speaking canton so the s is silent: it should be pronounced ‘ta-van’.
