Bearing (no verdicts)

  • Priority 4: the original C.O.L.Y.S.A. (Circuit Oscillant LakhovskY S.A.) was a Paris company in 1929 (26 rue des Marronniers, per the 1929 booklet). The present Swiss Colysa SA runs colysa.ch ("Laboratoires Colysa", which sells Lakhovsky-type devices and publishes the 1925 press article). The register gives no date of founding or link to the Paris company; the cantonal extract and the French Registre du commerce (Paris, 1929-1940s) would show whether there is a line of succession.
