| | The story of Candino and the BMW Travel Alarm Clock. By the 13th century, Switzerland had a reputation for precision. One facet of the precision was proven by Wilhelm Tell with a famous apple shot in one of the best known scenes from Swiss history. What this shot was for the accuracy of marksmanship in Tell's era, Candino is for the precision of Swiss watchmakers today.
In Herbetswil, the clocks and watches from the works founded by A Flury-Hug have been crafted for precision since 1947. It is a tradition that has been preserved and further refined up to present. The BMW 335 travel alarm runs with all the precision of a Swiss watch. The quartz movement utilizes very little energy and controls the hour, minute and second displays as well as the wake time and buzzer. The inner lid of the watch has the time zones of the world engraved on it. The two halves of the case are made of special steel and have a snap shut latch for easy closing. |
