By steep and toilsome ways to the stars
Lange and Sohne watch manufacture was founded in Glashutte in 1845 by Adolf Lange. Together with the watch production they also created tools and equipment for precise mechanisms. It was a small workshop that later turned into one of the most famous and popular watch companies in the world.

The Great Cartier
The Cartier company was founded in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier. He bought a watch workshop that very soon became very popular all around the world. A great number of royal families' members, nobility and aristocracy representatives and very rich people have always been among the passionate lovers of gorgeous Cartier pieces.

The brand's history

Sotirio Bvlgari, the family's founder, was a great jewelry maker who created beautiful pieces in silver. In search of better life he decided to move to Italy together with two his sons.

Remarkable Start
The story of Breitling watches started in 1884 - the famous Swiss watchmaking company was founded deep in the Jura Mountains. The founder, Leon Breitling, was overwhelmed by the idea to create top quality chronographs and precision counters for scientific and industrial use.

Later, in 1892 the Breitling company moved to La Chaux-de-Fonds, the heart of the Swiss horology world. Overtime, the dynamically developing company gained the prestigious status of the manufacturer that produces most reliable timekeeping equipment.
