 ===== Foundation =====
-In [[1982]] the watchmaker [[Lang, Gerd-Rüdiger|Gerd-Rüdiger Lang]] founded this company in Munich. Chronoswiss is specialized on mechanical [[wristwatch]]es with Swiss quality movements by [[ETA]] as well as on the basis of old calibre stocks by [[Enicar]] and [[Marvin]].

 ===== Under New Ownership =====
@@ Line 95: / Line 76: @@
 In [[2012]], Swiss entrepreneur Oliver Ebstein and his family took over the brand. Since [[2014]], the company has been headquartered in [[Lucerne]] (Switzerland). They remain committed to the philosophy shaped by Lang, but now vary it with three-dimensional dials, innovative materials, and architectural design. The timepieces are manufactured in small, exclusive series at the Lucerne studio.
-It is striking that under the new management, Lang’s previously quite traditionalist design— inspired by classic pocket watches — has been abandoned in favor of a bold, modern, colorful, and at times even shocking design.

+It is striking that, under the new management and following a transitional phase (see the Sirius series), Lang has now moved away from its previously rather traditional design—which was inspired by classic pocket watches—in favor of a bold, modern, colorful, and at times even shocking design.
