In the 1930s, the brand's movements, manufactured with solid technical expertise, became popular and gradually spread its name.When World War II broke out in the 1940s, a pilot's watch equipped with a highly accurate movement was officially adopted as a navigation watch for the German Air Force, marking the brand's entry into the world of full-fledged military watches.
