HISTORY OF TIME AND BRANDS


There is no evidence that confirms who created watch. What we know for sure is that we can find its glimpse from Germany in 15th century. From then we see continuous improvements from traditional mainspring mechanical watches to electric quartz watches. Now, the majority of the watches have quartz movement.
The word watch came from the word “watchman”.  This happened because the watch was used by watchman during that time. The sailors in 17th Century also used watches to measure time and length of their ships. Here are few series of improvements that we observed in the history of time piece:
        Clock-watches
        Pocket watches
        Wristwatches
        Electric watches
        Quartz watches


With the evolution of watches, luxury watch brands also kept on improving their technology. Here is some interesting information that may interest you about your favorite luxurywatch brands. We have covered Mont blanc watches, IWC Watches and A. Lange & Sohne Watches this page.
