Gay Frères
Gay Frères was established in 1835 by Jean-Pierre Gay and Gaspard Tissot. The company's workshop in Geneva was dedicated to the fabrication of chains as well as bracelets and became popular due to its quality of work and the originality of its creations.

Gay Frères was a key supplier to many prestigious watch companies, such as Patek Philipe and Breguet, and bracelets made by the company can add value to vintage pieces. In 1930 Gay Frères Geneva was followed by a sister company in Annemasse, France, known as Gay Frères Annemasse. While Gay Frères Geneva was sold to Rolex in 1998, Gay Frères Annemasse still exists in France producing exquisite jewellery items.
