I’d seen an occasional ad here and there for a brand called Wyler, but noticed that there were very few if any dealers in North America. For a brand that carries such a hefty price tag and has such famous brand ambassadors such as Richard Gere, you’d thing they’d have better brand recognition.
Wyler is based in Geneva, and produces some very beautiful and unique manufacture movements including their new Wyler Geneve Zagato, which is produced in a limited edition of 25 peices. It is powered by a 10-day power reserve movement with indicator, and unique crown guard that is something of a Wyler signature.

Interesting design, I have not heard of Wyler before your mention of them. Interesting crown guard device!

Wyler was a very noted watch company founded by Paul Wyler in 1896. The watches were known for their durability. I own a Wyler given to me for my 6th birhday by my mother. I am 61 years old and still have the watch. It still functions flawlessly with an occasional visit to the watch repair shop.
