Oris is rooted in the tradition of Swiss watchmaking. Turn your Oris watch over and you can tell at once that Oris is a leader in the world of mechanical watches. The window in the case back makes the complex inner workings of the watch visible, displaying the mechanical movement at the centre of the timepiece. These mechanical hearts have now been beating for over 100 years.

The famous Swiss watchmaker can boast a technical expertise born of tradition, elegance, and performance. With many years of experience as a timekeeper for world championships in sport and as a partner of international sports federations, Longines - famous for the elegance of its timepieces - is a member of the Swatch Group Ltd, the world's leading manufacturer of horological products. The brand known by its winged hourglass logo now has outlets in over 130 countries.

Zenith was founded in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, who at the young age of 22, was one of the first watchmakers to understand the importance of the principle of interchangeable parts. It's said that one night after Jacot finished a movement he considered almost perfection he went out and looked at the stars and he felt the cosmos almost speak to him, he saw the gigantic constellation turning around the Pole star similar in the complexity to the movements of the pivots and the wheels on their axes, and he decided then to call his new movement and its manufacture after the word that designates the highest point in the universe, Zenith, and the star was adopted as a brand symbol as it is still today.

Tissot was founded in 1853 by father and son team Charles-Felicien Tissot and Charles-Emile Tissot. Since that time, the Tissot brand has pioneered an impressive number of advancements in watchmaking history. In tribute to its long-standing history of advancements, Tissot has adopted the phrase "Innovators by Tradition" as its personal maxim.
