The watch brand Déesse was founded in 1978 in La Chaux-de-Fonds and deleted from the trademark register in 2009. The manufacturer is the watchmaker Kelek SA, in La Chaux-de-Fonds, which in turn was taken over by Breitling in 1997. The Déesse brand had already been marketed once before, in 1908, by the house of VENOT frères & Cie.
