High-end Parisian jewellery house Barthelay
was crafting watch cases for renowned brands like Cartier
Founded in 1931 by Alexis Barthelay,
the company was built on a legacy of craftsmanship passed down from Alexis' father,
a renowned French watchmaker.
In the 1950s, Alexis' son, Rolland Barthelay, took the reins of the family business.
Rolland’s exceptional skills in jewelry design and production
helped establish the brand’s distinctive collections,
while also overseeing the creation of watches for some of the most respected jewelers of the time.
Today, Alexis Barthelay watches are highly in vogue,
being appreciated for their delicacy and superior beauty.
An embodiment of Parisian elegance,
Barthelay creations are looked upon favorably
by members of the aristocracy and sportsmen
