The watches (Real World Photos)

Vincent Perriard, CEO Concord shared some insights into the near and mid-term future for Concord. Some things were "off the record" so I can only say that "Them's exciting times ahead for Concord!"

Throw away all your preconceived ideas or memories and start afresh. Yes - even throw away the glory days of world's thinnnest analogue watch (1.98mm) in the Delirium series

Forget about how Concord "encouraged" the remaining Swiss industry in the 1970-80s to fight back on the quartz front against "cheap foreign-made (read that as Eastern-made) technology"....hmm, sounds familiar don't it?    viz China today..... 

But I digress.....

 Vincent gets quite animated talking about the C1

He waves his hands about and taking the photo of the chronograph was a feat in "timing" in itself!

Hugging my wrist...... but not for Christmas

Demonstrating the innovative vertical strap fitting without lugs and it's "hugginess"
