More than 250 years of Fine Swiss Watchmaking expertise can be found within the foundation of every GV2 timepiece. Jacques Gevril, the name behind both GV2 and its parent brand Gevril, was one of the founding forefathers of the sublime craft of fine Swiss Watchmaking.
Page 5
The Gevril family was so much a part of Swiss History that a member of the Gevril family was actually named Mayor and even today a street exists in Geneva named rue Daniel Gevril.
Page 6
Gevril's dedication to the fine works of art that he created caused his timepieces to find their way into the salons of the royal and rewarded Gevril with a position of prestige in the history of the very measurement of time itself.
