Albert was born on September 30, 1930 in Geneva. He began training and designing at the age of 15 at l’Ecole des Arts Industriels. Albert's father "instilled a love of nature into [him] right from [his] childhood". His talent was noticed by Patek Philippe when he was only 25. He worked there as part of the designer team and was head of the workshop from 1955 to 1962, during which he coined signature asymmetrical watches for the house. He also worked with Omega SA watchmakers before opening his own atelier in 1962. He was the most rewarded Diamonds International Awards jeweler; which he received 10 times; three for Patek Philippe, two for Omega and five under his own workshop.
