The Best from Japan

“Whilst the Swiss are well known for thier watchmaking it is little appreciated that the Japanese too have a long history of building quality timepieces. 
Apart from the fact that the Japanese watch industry has an incredible record for innovation and the application of very sophisticated electronic technologies to watchmaking, it is little recognised that they have also developed extremely efficient and successful mechanical movements.
So much so in fact that some very famous Swiss watch companies are paying for the rights to use Japanese developed mechanical movement designs in their own watch executions.”
