Louis-Edouard Fallet
Louis-Edouard Fallet established a jewelry and engraving business in La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1907 called Louis Fallet Fils house. He was also from Dombresson but lived in La Chaux-de-Fonds. It is likely that he was the son or nephew of Edouard Fallet. The firm was located at Rue de la Montagne 38.
A watch model was registered on August 25, 1905, in the name of Louis Fallet and his son Edouard Fallet, both from Saint-Imier.
The company merged with that of Paul Schiffmann of Homberg (Thoune) as Fallet & Schiffmann in 1907. By this time the company had re-focused specifically on watch and jewelry decoration and was located at Rue Léopold Robert 38.
