A century later, due to the gathering of clockmakers in Geneva, many clockmakers decided to leave the city for Jura Mountain.
The watchmaking industry in Jura Mountain thanks to a young goldsmith named Daniel Jane Richard (1665- 174 1), who introduced the division of labor into the watchmaking industry for the first time. Geneva sold more than 60,000 watches in 1990. 39960 . 68686888686
These centuries are full of inventions and new developments. 1770, Abraham-Louis Berry Lei Faming invented a "permanent" watch (Montre à secousses in French), which became the pioneer of modern self-winding watches. 1842, Andre Philippe, one of the famous founders of Patek Philippe, invented the pendulum winding watch.
A large number of watches were produced in the 20th century. Thanks to the new technology introduced by researchers and prestigious watchmakers (such as Frederic Ingud and George Lycott), the improvement of parts productivity, interchangeability and standardization has actively led the Swiss watch industry to the peak of the world.
At the end of World War I, watches became very popular. The traditional round shape of watches is generally accepted in 1960. 1926 Glen Xing gave birth to the first self-winding watch, 1952 at the end of the first electronic watch.
1967, the world's first quartz watch-the famous beta 21-was born in CEH, Neuchatel. Since then, the following main technologies have developed smoothly: LED and LCD display, battery-free Swatch quartz watch, and so on.
Up to now, more than four centuries have passed. Tradition, skill, high technology and eternal innovation make Swiss watch industry keep a leading position in the world watch market. Thanks to various crises experienced by Switzerland, the Swiss watch industry can cope with many technical, economic and structural challenges it faces. Its extraordinary material resources and creativity make it an industry with technical development level. It has so many inventions or world records: the first watch, the first quartz watch, the first waterproof watch, the thinnest watch in the world, the smallest or most expensive watch in the world, and so on.
