Helvetia History
·Hello all,
As I can legitimately claim a link to Omega, with the Brandts owning the General Watch Co in the time period we are talking about, I thought I'd post this here.
I have finally got around to finishing the update to the trench watch page on my site.
Now shows over 30 watches from 1905 to the 1920s with patent drawings, adverts etc.
Hopefully it will show what a wide range of watches Helvetia produced during this time, I'm sure some of you may identify watches you have that you didn't realise were Helvetias before.
It now leads nicely on to the shock and water protected watches of the late 20s and 30s.
Have a look here, all feedback gratefully received, especially if you let me know of any mistakes!

Next to do some minor updates to the Stop and Sport Chrono, DIH, DH and Pilots pages then I might start what will be a mammoth task of adding a pocket watch page.
Thanks. Carl.
