Maison Gay Frères was established in 1835 by Jean-Pierre Gay and Gaspard Tissot, starting with a chain-making workshop in Geneva. From the outset, their quality work and creativity distinguished them, earning them immediate recognition. Renowned for their bracelets, they became the preferred suppliers of the most prestigious watchmaking houses such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, and Zenith, at a time when the wristwatch was gaining popularity. They also collaborated with Van Cleef &Arpels on jewelry.
