HISTORY

In the Swiss watch industry, the year of 1850 is shown with pride and tradition. It marks the appearance of TECHNOS, a mark trade that would become famous in the whole world.

In the seventies, the Swiss watch industry was seriously affected by the new quartz technology, and needed help from the Swiss banks. A nominated interventor drastically reformulated a significant group of watch industries and launched with success a plastic disposable watch, under whose shelter, nowadays, are integrated most of the well-known swiss watch marks. TECHNOS, however, succeeded in striding a different venture.

The company decided to invest in material research and new technologies, as well as in the constant renovation of its lines of watches. At present are manufactures more than 600 models, establishing tendencies when the matter is design and industrial inovation.

BRIEF HISTORY OF ROTARY WATCHES

It was in 1895 in the small Swiss town of La Chaux-de-fonds that Rotary Watches was founded by Moise Dreyfuss. His famed attention to detail coupled with a keen business acumen ensured that whilst every material was (and still is) carefully chosen and each component assembled with absolute precision the watches represented extremely good value. This commitment to "value for money" quality watchmaking resulted in a business that grew quickly and now over 100 years later Rotary watches Ltd is an international company with timepieces sold in over 35 countries worldwide. Despite this growth Rotary has remained, like Millers Jewellers, very much a family business. The present managing director, Robert Dreyfuss, who took over the helm in 1989, being the great grandson of the founder and is as committed as ever to the founding principles of "quality and value".

Dolphin standard

The commitment to the art of watchmaking and technical innovation has manifested itself recently in the new 'Dolphin Standard'. Water resistance has traditionally been a characteristic of chunky sports watches, however now the majority of the watches in the Rotary ladies and gents ranges (even models which feature stone set bezels, delicate bracelets or ultra-slim cases) have been upgraded to the new, exclusive "Dolphin Standard" meaning that you and your watch can swim and dive all day. Dolphin standard watches are suitable for swimming, shallow diving, yachting, all water sports, bathing and showering.

Limited editions

Since late 2004 Rotary has been releasing 'Limited Edition' watches. Each edition is released at 6 monthly intervals and limited to 500 pieces worldwide. Each Rotary watch is individually numbered and is accompanied by a complimentary self-winding, hand crafted, oak-wood presentation box and an individually signed certificate of authenticity.

BRIEF HISTORY OF LONGINES AND WITTNAUER WATCHES

Longines Watch Company was started in 1832 by Auguste Agassiz. Agassiz opened a workshop in St Imier, Switzerland. He operated what today would be called a "Home Business". Workers would work on watches out of thier own homes, whigh Agassiz would later sell.

Sometime between the years of 1854 and 1866 Agassiz handed down over the operation of the watchmaking business to his nephew Ernest Francillon. Realizing the lack of consistant quality coming from the manufacture of watches in so many locations, Francillon soon built a factory in Les Longines near St. Imier and consolidated all of the areas watchmaking under one roof. The Longines name was born.

The company began producing chronographs in 1879. They later produced aviator watches and cockpit instruments.

The company registered its "Winged Hourglass" trademark in May of 1890.

In 1912 the company produced the first automatic timekeeping device. From that day Longines has long been associated with time-keeping at major sporting events.

In the 1950's Longines purchased the Wittnauer watch company and marketed a number of very similar lines of watches in the US under both brand names.

In my opinion, Longines Wittnauer is one of the finest watches a collector can find. The classic designs are fantastic. The accuracy and reliability is amazing, and the parts are readily available. One of my favorites.
