The Oudin dynasty of watchmakers begun with Charles Oudin, a renowned watchmaker and student of Breguet, who established his workshop in Paris at the Palais Tribunat in 1804, then at the Galerie de Pierre from 1810-20. He was succeeded by his son Jean-Charles and Jean-Charles's cousin Joseph Oudin. The house of Oudin specialized amongst others in finely enamelled and jewelled watches, snuff boxes with watches and form watches.
