A LITTLE HISTORY: The history of the Helvetia watch goes way back to 1848, when a certain Louis Brands established a sales office for manufacturing watches. By 1880 Louis and his brother César set up a watch manufacturing business, La Generale Watch Co (General Watch Company). Clearly names for their product were required and the two brothers picked a number of names for their watches including Patria, Jura, Celtic and Helvetia. By 1894 the General Watch Company had developed a new type of watch movement and who came up with the simple and quite elegant name Omega. The Omega brand was a tremendous success and by 1903 it was decided that Omega would split from the General Watch Company as an independent enterprise, with the General Watch Company focusing its attentions on the manufacture watches under trade names such as Helvetia. Emerging from the early 1930s was a growing trend toward rearming. This drove developments in the watch industry with the German military. Helvetia watches, being one of the major brands of GWC Ltd, found their way into the armed forces of both the German and Western Allies. PAYMENT: Payment should be made within 4 days.
