Thanks for sharing, I love infographics. A visually nice presentation of some interesting facts. Walked from my phone to my laptop to read it :-). Perhaps someone can do a pac-man slide of which brands ate which next ;-)
Very cool, thanks!
Really interesting, thanks
1982 B&H re-invent the swiss mechanical as a luxury.
Love watches
Love infographics.
Win win

Very interesting to see it like that and as said had no idea how old some of the brands were.
where is the other big name in the timeline ?
Vacheron Constantin - 1775
And the most fast growing brands .... Zenith belongs in this top
Since 2009 when Mr Dufour became CEO they grew a lot more than let's say 'Breguet'
20% per year is no exception

Comparing the growth rates of a relative new start (and exclusively expensive) watchmaker with long established brands with global networks of dealers is disingenuous at best.
Enjoyed the article though.

Oh, and TAG being from 1860 :)
Thanks for posting, enjoyed that.
That's a really interesting piece for a relative newcomer like me, thanks for sharing!
Sweet, thanks a lot for sharing!
I knew Hong Kongers liked their watches, but that's an eye opener.
Re-position is the word. They couldn't reinvent what already existed. Now give it a rest Cilla. Every thread is a bit boring. There is not I am sure one member who doesn't get what you think of the Swiss watch industry
indeed ... VC 1755
1775 is Breguet, which also isn't in the list ... pretty big names
Very interesting, thanks!
