Chronoswiss

Chronoswiss Company History: Chronoswiss is a relatively new kid on the block as far as watch manufacturers go. The company was established in 1982 by Gerd-Rudiger Lang who gave it the name Chronoswiss as a conjunction of the words "Chronos" (meaning "Time" in Greek), and "Swiss" for the motherland of mechanical watch making. Gerd-R Lang, who is also a lover of automobiles, has won two races alongside a co-driver, and both times in a Jaguar. Although Chronoswiss headquarters are actually in Munich, Germany, they use only watch parts manufactured in neighboring Switzerland. Most Chronoswiss watches have a very familiar shape & style: large round cases, fluted bezels, bulbous crowns, and sapphire glass case backs. In 1996 they received the first prize award for "Watch of the Year" for their Opus, the first skeletonized automatic chronograph. Chronoswiss tries to stay exclusive by only producing about 7,000 watches per year. Many people consider preowned Chronoswiss watches, used Chronoswiss watches & second hand Chronoswiss watches all the same, but a Gray & Sons Chronoswiss watch is something different altogether. All our watches are serviced and polished to like new condition and come with our twelve month warranty and Like New for Life policy. Our after sales service commitment is second to none in the world, backed by our six in house Swiss-trained watchmakers and jewelers.
