Capt and Isaac Piguet went into business, and from roughly 1802 to 1811 specialized in watches with wild automata and musical horological complications. Piguet eventually split off, joining Philippe-Samuel Meylan to become Piguet & Meylan around 1811. A handful of years later, Capt joined with Aubert and Son to become Aubert & Capt, in 1830, credited as the first Genevans to make watches with chronographs.
