In the 80s and 90s
the status of having arrived or made it without shouting from the rooftop was
sporting a quiet elegance by wearing a luxury watch made in Switzerland. The world famous brands on the wrist turned heads and it cost a
pretty penny (make that thousands of pounds). The Swiss watchmakers were on the
top of the horological world as they began to be associated and synonymous with
excellence and precision.
The fall of the
Berlin wall heralded a new challenge to the Swiss watch fraternity. The village
of Glasshutte with its ten watch making enterprises produced just a shade over
30,000 watches in 2015. The big differentiation was the collective revenue for
this small number of production watches totaled half a billion euros. The
average price of a Glasshutte produced watch was nothing less than 50,000 euros
with the priciest watches topping the 2 million euro mark. The people who buy
these watches appreciate this kind of excellence and the status symbol is even
much higher. The small select clientele do not shout from the rooftop and
neither do they have a chartered jet at Dresden (the nearest airport to
Glasshutte) waiting for the watch to be serviced.
These customers keep a secret
that is well-kept. They get the watches serviced by expert watchmakers in
England such as Perpetual Time who know everything about timepieces (as it was
called in the earlier times). Perpetual Time follows in the traditions of
classic watchmakers and they are as bespoke as Saville Row is for clothing.
Theyare spoken with awe and the many who post their appreciation through Perpetual Time reviews in professional watch magazines are a legacy to their fine
workmanship.Apart from watch servicing they excel in watch restoration. Several
Perpetual Time reviews testify to the
professionalism of their service as evidenced by many customers who have got
family heirloom watches restored to pristine condition.
