History of FENDI Watches
Fendi was established in 1925 by Eduardo Fendi. Today it is one of Italy's paramount fashion dynasties. It is most identified for its furs, clothing line, accessories, and fragrances. Fendi launched its distinctive watches in the late 1980s. Fendi watches are appealing to both men and women due to their attractive and sleek designs.
Fendi is known for its trademark double "F" logo on both the bracelet and chronograph. The striking Zucca collection, with its trademark double F logo on both bracelet and chronograph, was the first to bring notice to the Fendi lines of elegant and sportivo timepieces. New and exciting collections, including Allegra, Epoca, Moda, Rivoli and Stella, continue to pique the interest of Fendi fans the world over. And the venerated Classico collection pays homage to the grand style of the wristwatches from Eduardo s era.
All Fendi watches feature ETA Swiss movements and are water resistant to 100 feet. Each gold-tone case has minimum 10 micron 18-karat-gold plating with individual serial numbers engraved on the case back.
History of FORTIS Watches
When Walter Vogt founded Fortis in 1912, his most brilliant move would come 12 years later when he set up production with John Harwood, the inventor of the automatic wristwatch. Two years later in 1926, Fortis released the first self-winding wristwatch, the patented Harwood Automatic. From its beginnings in invention, the rest of the company’s history is steeped in more invention. In 1937 Fortis commemorated their 25th anniversary by manufacturing their first chronographs and in 1954 they took over the world-wide distribution of alarm watches.
The company has won awards for water resistance features and for their fashion-savvy inter-changeable bracelets. In 1992 they released a world novelty: the first watch with indication of the 52 calendar weeks. Their watches have joined space flights and air flights alike and the Fortis Official Cosmonauts Chronograph was chosen as the official watch of the Russian-German space mission MIR 97. More recently they premiered the world's first automatic chronograph with mechanical alarm, FORTIS calibre F2001.
Fortis has a history of being ahead of the times and that’s why their watches will keep you ahead on all of your travels whether they be on the road, in the sky, or galactic.
