The Luxury Watch Blog

Concord was founded in Bienne, Switzerland, in 1908, by two young Swiss craftsmen who shared an ambition to create watches of beautifully thin proportions. Early in the century, Concord designs were frequently selected by Cartier, Tiffany and others among the world’s finest jewelers as their own private-label timepieces. In 1979, Concord earned worldwide renown as the company that pioneered and perfected the ultra-flat Swiss quartz movement with the Delirium, the thinnest watch in the world. Concord continues to set new standards for watch making sophistication with its spectacularly jeweled, one-of-a-kind creations like the Saratoga Splendors, handcrafted tour billion timepieces of unsurpassed technical complication and mastery.

Today, from the sportive luxury of Saratoga SL to the graceful style and exceptional value of Les Palais, to the grandly geometric Las Scala and elegantly detailed Veneto collections in solid 18 karat gold, Concord watches are the sensation of time.

This question seems to plague many in the watch world. Because someone has a swiss watch does this mean that they have a better time piece? The simple answer is no! When it comes to regular watches like Seiko are good watches. So why are people all over the “Swiss Made” Watches?

Why Swiss Movements

The swiss were amongst the first watch makers. Many popular brands such as Movado and Concord are swiss company’s. Also the Swiss people are known for there precision. Which in turn makes “Swiss Movements” popular due to the demand that the watch would tell the time accurately.

Conclusion
