Company History:
The Gevril watch
company was begun by Jacques Gevril in the mid-1700s in
La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland's center of watch-making
for centuries. He was a sought-after master of horology,
and he created his first chronometer in 1743 and his
first repetition dial in 1744. Most notably, he was
called upon by the King of Spain in 1758 to produce a
personal timepiece, which went over so well that Gevril
was appointed as Royal Swiss Watchmaker to the Spanish
Crown.
The Gevril family tradition of watch making was passed
onto Jacques's son, Moyse Gevril, and in 1784 he
achieved the status of Master Clockmaker. During the
1800s, the Gevril family expanded their art to include
enameling as well as the creation of dials for their
watches. Gevril timepieces are displayed in museums
across Europe--most notably the Museum Geneve and the
Rolex Museum (where a Gevril pocket watch is displayed
in the collection personally selected by the Wilsdorf
family, the founder of Rolex).
The company was purchased by Samuel Friedmann in 2000,
who believed the Gevril name represented an ideal
combination of history and future potential. Today's
signature Avenue of Americas line is based on a case
design from the 1920, which was discovered after going
through Gevril's raft of historical documents and design
books. It has a retro look, but is updated with a
beveled dial with raised, hand-painted numbers and
straight chronograph pushers for a contemporary feel.
Creating a Gevril timepiece is exhaustive, and Gevril
expends years into the design and manufacture of its
rare and enduring timepiece collections. It manufactures
only limited edition collections, with 6,000 Gevril
watches created each year and each line limited to 500
(stainless steel) or 100 (gold) pieces. The company also
sources only the best materials and accoutrements,
including 316L stainless steel, natural mother-of-pearl
dials, Wesselton diamonds calibrated by CNC machines and
Louisiana crocodile skin.
