Philippe-Samuel Meylan
"Born in Le Brassus in 1772, he was a member of a family of renowned watchmakers. He was to specialise in making very thin watches, some of which were characterisied by being wound using a female spring arbor and a square-shanked key. Became an eminent maker of watches with automata, and early musicwork. In 1811, went to Geneva and formed partnership with Piguet. He died in 1845."

Meylan & Lecoultre

" Philippe Samuel Meylan manufactured musical boxes with a hitherto unidentified member of the Lecoultre family under this name, presumably after the termination of his partnership with Piguet in 1828."
