View full history →About the Switzerland gold market
Switzerland's hallmarking law, dating to 1880, applies compulsory third-party assay only to watch cases — any gold, silver or platinum watch case sold in the country must carry an official mark such as the "Head of Helvetia" for 18K gold. For all other gold jewellery, hallmarking remains optional, a narrower mandatory scope than most European hallmarking systems.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from gold-api.com + xaus.com, with automatic failover between providers.
- The spot rate is converted into the local currency using live exchange rates from exchangerate-api.com, then scaled by purity (24K, 22K, 18K…) and by weight (gram, tola, ounce, kilogram, baht).
- The result is the pure spot value. Retail counters may add dealer premium, tax and making charges — the number here is the underlying benchmark.
