History
Weil initially sold his designs from a foldout bridge table in a stall in Geneva. The line included both the traditional spring-powered and cog-and-gear mechanical Swiss watches and quartz-powered watches. He marketed the watches internationally towards lower-end luxury watch buyers.

As of 2014, the company sold 200,000 watches yearly at an average price of GB£1000.

In July 2018, Weil moved its UK head office into St Peter’s Square in Manchester.
