History of the brands
Active filters
A pioneer of the automatic watch, Walter Vogt built Fortis into a watchmaking company that was always at the cutting edge of technological innovation. The company's complex history continues to this day.
This American-Swiss manufacturer from the very early 20th century produced high quality watches, and created the Avia brand, taken over much later by Degoumois & Cie.
Wyler watches were made famous by the use of the famous Incaflex balance wheel. But Wyler's history is not limited to this original shock absorber: the company created many interesting models, was a pioneer in automatic watches and sports sponsorship, and the Wyler family even ran another Swiss brand: Liema.
