Charles Gigandet S.A. was a Swiss manufactory based in Tramelan. The company was founded in 1959 and delivered fine timepieces to the American market, where they were sold by the Wakmann Watch Co., who were known as a supplier of high-quality brands in North America – the most famous of them being the Breitling brand.
