Raymond Weil Genève (French pronunciation: [ʁemɔ̃ vɛːj]) is a Swiss luxury watchmaker founded in 1976 in Geneva by Raymond Weil and Simone Bédat. Simone Bedat and her son left the company in 1996 to form Bedat & Co. Raymond Weil led the company until his retirement in 2002; he died in 2014. The company is now managed by Weil's grandson, Elie Bernheim.
History
Weil initially sold his designs from a foldout bridge table in a stall in Geneva. The line included both the traditional spring-powered and cog-and-gear mechanical Swiss watches and quartz-powered watches. He marketed the watches internationally towards lower-end luxury watch buyers.
As of 2014, the company sold 200,000 watches yearly at an average price of £1,000.
In July 2018, Weil moved its UK head office into St Peter’s Square in Manchester.
