The business of time: A global history of the watch industry
by pierre yves donzé

World watch production today is concentrated in three countries: Switzerland, Japan and China. Former centres such as Great Britain, France, the United States and Russia saw the industrial manufacture of watches disappear from their territory during the twentieth century. How did this situation come about? The business of time aims to answer this question by presenting the first comprehensive history of the sector. It traces the evolution and transformation of the global watch industry from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day, highlighting the conditions that enabled watch production to expand across the globe and revealing how multinational companies gradually emerged to dominate the industry.

It's supposed to be like a luxury product, but now with 3D printed components, it's kind of a scam to sell a Richard Mille for a million dollars instead of $1

thoughts on cartier? I remember I really wanted one, but looking back it was pretty cringe to want a nice watch for no reason. especially since I rarely go out.

I had some watch shop take out the battery because I heard it wasn't good to leave one in long term
