 ===== 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]]. Also two own calibres are made. Since [[1988]] all cases come from in-house production. A particular success was the „[[Chronoswiss Régulateur|Régulateur]]", a [[wristwatch]] with [[Regulator|regulator dial]] based on the model of precision pendulum [[clock]]s. A [[pocket watch]] "Regulateur" with a [[Minerva]] calibre was also made. Chronoswiss now exports to over 40 countries worldwide. Each year about 7,000 watches are sold in about 500 stores worldwide - in Paris, London, New York and Tokyo.

-===== Under New Ownership =====
+===== Since 2012 under new ownership =====
 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.
+[[2014]]: An in-house guilloché and enamel workshop is established. [[2023]]: New [[manufacture caliber]]s are introduced.
+<blockquote>Modern Mechanical is not just a slogan — it is our philosophy. Because true innovation does not come from turning our backs on the past, but from the courage to build upon it.
+At Chronoswiss, we combine the depth of traditional watchmaking with a bold, contemporary design language. <cite>Oliver Ebstein, Owner & CEO of Chronoswiss</cite></blockquote>
