It's time for YOUR PERSONAL REVOLUTION. ABOUT WATCH MAKING IN CHINA Watches have united China and Europe in a long history of mutual fascination for several centuries with Europe's finest watch houses crafting their timepieces tailored to the Chinese market. Chinese preference for mechanical movements and ornate design directly influenced the development of intricate mechanical movements by Swiss and German Manufacturers since the eighteenth century, which has led to the billion dollar luxury watch industry of today.Not since the water clock of the tenth century under the Song dynasty, the first timepiece ever to have a mechanical escapement, has China attained a breakthrough in mechanical horology. Then in the 1970s, the Swiss me chanical watch industry underwent a crisis caused by the advent of the quartz watch and began selling specialized watch making machines to China. Still, it took the Chinese nearly 30 years to finesse watch making skills to develop their first finely tuned Tourbillon movement, the central watch mechanism set in a rotating cage to offset the distorting effects of gravity. The complex construction and precision required to create the high complication makes it one of the most difficult movements to craft and can only be executed by a master watch maker.
