Gallet & Company - Knowledge

534:: Jeanneret-Brehm begins manufacturing under the company name Excelsior Park. Deriving the name from Jenneret-Brehm's previously registered "Excelsior" trademark, the English variation of the French word for "park" is utilized at the prompting of Gallet to support the collaborative efforts of the two companies in their marketing focus on the American consumer. The cooperative relationship of Excelsior Park and Gallet leads to the development of a number of time recording mechanisms, including the calibre 40. These new chronograph movements are utilized almost exclusively in Gallet and Excelsior Park wristwatches, with a small number supplied to the Girard Perregaux and Zenith companies when production capabilities allowed. 1400: 1547: 1460: 1559: 1340: 1523: 1328: 1424: 1535: 1499: 1487: 1388: 1511: 1376: 1364: 1281: 1571: 1296: 1316: 393:: In response to the growing threat of competition for sales of timepieces by industrially advanced American manufacturer's, Léon Gallet, together with Louis and Jules Courvoisier, Ernest Francillon of Longines, and Constant Girard-Gallet of Girard-Perregaux, found the Societe Intercantonale des Industries du Jura (Intercantonal Society for Industries of the Jura Region) on 30 April. Benefiting from the unified strength of combined Swiss manufacturing resources, the group is able to maintain its sales dominance in Europe. Marketing for the syndicate is primarily European based with an emphasis on sales to England. 1448: 1436: 442:: Gallet introduces the first wrist-worn watches for mass consumption by men and women to the American market. These first "wristwatches" are immediately rejected due to public perception as being too unusual for women and too feminine for men. All unsold examples are soon returned to Switzerland for disassembly. In spite of initial resistance to this groundbreaking innovation, wristwatches are issued during World War I as a more useful way for soldiers to tell time in combat situations. As a result, this new concept gains acceptance, and is soon added to the offerings of numerous other watch companies. 1352: 1412: 859: 510:: Gallet wins the Grand Prize in the Chronometer category at the Swiss National Exhibition in Berne. Production begins in Gallet's Electa workshops on an extra high quality series of watches for wealthy patrons of the Laforge & Valentine jewelry department of Macy's New York store.

Wein Brothers continues to distribute military timepieces and related products under the Marathon brand to the present day. 293: 614:: Excelsior Park closes its factory on 6 April due to the lack of family successors and a sizable decrease in orders of mechanical movements from its Gallet partner during the difficult "quartz crisis". To continue to support owners of Excelsior Park powered watches, Gallet acquires the balance of the company's remaining inventory and assets. An attempt in 1984 by the Flume Company of Germany to revitalize Excelsior Park name proves unsuccessful. 448:: Berthe Courvoisier (1868–1936), daughter of Louis Philippe Courvoisier and an heir to the family watch company, is wed to Georges Gallet, son of Léon. Berthe Courvoisier and her brother Émile, together with Georges Gallet and his sister Henriette, continue to manage the Courvoisier Frères watch company. Georges Gallet assumes the role as co-director of the company while managing the Fabrique Electa division of Gallet & Cie. 733:: Designed by David R. Laurence and Laurent Auberson, Gallet introduces the 100th Anniversary Racing Heritage chronograph in commemoration of the initial 1918 order of the company's wrist-worn timers by the Indianapolis Speedway for use when the track reopened after WWI in 1919. This original 1918 Gallet version is the first known use of wrist chronographs for auto racing instead of previously used hand-held stopwatches. 504:: Gallet creates the first wristwatch for mass distribution to include a full-sized constant seconds hand originating from the center of the dial (face). This innovation proved useful for timing tasks that emphasized seconds over minutes and hours, including the measuring of the human heart rate. Gallet's new "sweep second" wristwatches were issued to military nurses and medics during World War I. 568:. This wristwatch provides a combination of innovations. Besides the ability to accurately record events ranging from 1/5 second to 30 minutes in duration, the rotating 12-hour bezel and dial (face) printed with the major cities gives pilots the ability to calculate changes in the time as lines of longitude are crossed. Truman wears a Gallet Flying Officer during his two terms as US president. 602:: Asian manufacturers initiate direct competition with the Swiss watchmaking industry by releasing inexpensive electronic quartz regulated timepieces onto the world markets. By continuing to build mechanical timepieces for military, industrial, and professional clients not influenced by changing fads and convention, Gallet survives the so-called "quartz crisis". 660:: David R. Laurence (a.k.a. "The Chrono Guy"), watch industry veteran with over forty years of experience in the areas of design, manufacturing, and marketing of fine jewelry and luxury level timepieces, joins Gallet to coordinate future company activities including research, discovery and revitalization of Gallet's historic legacy and intellectual properties. 256:
