Schwarz Etienne is a watch manufacturer that may be unknown to you, but they have the potential to be an important player in the near future. Schwarz Etienne is actually no stranger in the watch industry, founded as they were in 1902 by Paul Arthur Schwar...  

WOW! Thank you Don for this incredible and deeply report and all these shots.

I knew this brand but I absolutely wasn't aware that they made their own escapements and hairsprings. Thanks again for the tour and this discovery. Best wishes Alkiro

Thanks Don.

It is this kind of article that makes the forum such a great source to learn more about the watch industry. The professional press seems to have given up to cover niches of the industry and prefers to base the stories published likely on what they get fro... 

Thank you Don!

I knew barely more than the name of this brand, great to see it from the inside and learn about what they can do! Definitely like the flying tourbillon with retrograde seconds best as well! Best wishes, HGL

Wow, thanks for sharing. I've never heard of them before.

Some of the watches have a little Greubel Forsey EWT influence in my opinion. Thanks for sharing

Thank you very much for that great report of the brand

I have one of their old pilot pieces with Unitas movement. These new in house ones are significantly nicer

Really impressive and fascinating Don

Since years I see SE at the Baselworld, and they are getting better and better. However, I have never ever seen a person actually wearing an SE. Do you know more on SE? -Do they actually sell enough watches? Maybe a dumb question, but I really wonder... -... 

jumping in late here...

thank you for the great write up. I read a short comment about them recently and have been trying to research the company further. I think producing all components in-house, especially the hairspring and escapement is wonderful and deserves more attention...
