===== Foundation =====
The watch company Raymond Weil is based in [[Geneva]] and is one of the last independent Swiss watch brands that are still owned by the family.

The founder, Raymond Weil, begins watchmaking in [[1976]] under his own name. [[1982]] his son-in-law Olivier Bernheim joins the company. He modernizes the company structure and is responsible for the areas of communcation and marketing. [[1996]] Olivier Bernheim becomes CEO and president. In the meantime his two sons Elie and Pierre also collaborate the first as Head of Marketing, while the second is involved in the sale.

With an estimated annual production of 330,000 watches and a turnover of well over 200 million francs (as of about 2007) Raymond Weil proves that even independent family companies can be successfully maintained in the watch industry in the difficult segment of the mid to upper price range.

===== Collections =====
[[1990]], the men's and women's collection "Parsifal" are launched, which contributes to the growing success. [[1995]], the classic collection "Tango" appears. [[2002]] appears the collection "Don Giovanni Cosi Grande", [[2007]] the collection "Nabucco". [[2010]], 20 years after the launch of the hitherto best known model of the brand, Parsifal, a new edition of the series is presented (see [[Raymond Weil Parsifal Chronograph 7260|Parsifal Chronograph 7260]]).
