Ochs und Junior Watches
One of my heroes in watchmaking is a man named Ludwig Oechslin.

Public love and strong sales led
Swiss Foundations and Federations Against Watch Piracy Miss The Point
First, see the official statement/announcement that has recently been released, then read my comments below it:"The Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie and the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry are joining forces to launch an international anti-counterfeiting campaign. Their objective is to inform the public on the damage caused by this global scourge.In spite of the many efforts made, the problem of counterfeiting and piracy continues to wreak havoc on virtually every economy worldwide, and is expanding rapidly through multiple distribution channels, especially online.Astronomica
