Glashü tte is the center of German watchmaking. In that year, Glashutte's watch business started in this small town near Muglitz Valley in Saxony, Germany. Glashü tte's history of making clocks can be traced back to 1845. 1994, Glashü tte brand officially returned to the world watch industry under the name of GlashutteOriginal. This old German brand, with a history of over 150 years, has the pedigree of pure German watches and once again reveals the brilliance of the German watchmaking industry.

1845, FerdinandAdolphlange founded the first watchmaking factory. In fact, he founded not only a watchmaking factory, but the whole watchmaking industry. In order to realize his dream, Langer sincerely invites professionals and other famous watchmakers to participate in his project. JuliusAssmann, Mr. Langer's son-in-law, was the first to join. He helped his father-in-law manage his business in his early years and was also the backbone of the emerging watch manufacturing industry in Saxony. Although close, it does not hinder healthy competition. 1852, assmann, a watchmaker himself, began to produce pocket watches. His timepieces are internationally renowned for their precise performance, and have won many awards and gold medals in many world exhibitions. His outstanding achievements are impressive.

In addition to JuliusAssmann, Glashü tte also attracted other watchmakers to come back and develop. 185 1 year, AdolfSchneider, who studied with Langer in Dresden, decided to settle down and start a business in Glashü tte. Other important figures in Glashü tte's early development were Ludwig strasser and Gustav Rhodes. 1875, they founded Strasser &;; Rhodes mechanical timekeeping workshop, which is famous for making accurate pendulum timepieces, has laid a good foundation for its development.

1863, the first wristwatch with timing device appeared.

In order to meet the demand of the huge market and cultivate more professionals, MoritzGroBmann established the "German Watchmaking School" on 1878, which not only trained a group of professional watchmakers for Glashü tte, but also many graduates traveled around the world after their studies, exchanged ideas with the Swiss watchmaking industry and promoted watchmaking know-how. AlfredHel-wig, one of the best, graduated from the German watchmaking school and then studied timekeeping technology in many countries. After the completion, he returned to Glashü tte and founded the Observatory Watch Workshop. He became famous by virtue of exquisite adjustment technology and the invention of floating tourbillon, and joined the school as a tutor. About 20% people in this factory are receiving training.

The pocket watch produced by Glashü tte Company in 1905 has its traditional design on the enamel surface, and it has three parts decorated with Louis XV gold hands. After the outbreak of World War I, Europe was filled with smoke, the world economy fell into a low tide, and the plan to develop Glashü tte Company came to an abrupt end. Companies in the small town of Glashü tte are struggling to survive in the economic depression, and some of them are closing down. Even adversity can't stop Glashü tte's current progress. Only one year later, "Glashü tte" came out with a brand-new image, and all the new series were produced by industrial procedures. These beautiful timepieces were conceived and designed by a company named HREN-ROHW- Hongxing Erke -Fabricag (UROFA). At this time, when World War II broke out, all watchmaking companies had to switch to producing military materials, and Glashü tte Company was not spared. It was not until 1994 that East and West merged that Glashü tte regained her original name in the world watch industry.

With the spirit of perseverance and the quality assurance of Excellence, "Glashü tte once again stood on the altar. The brand-new development direction stems from a kind of wisdom that keeps pace with the times. At that time, watches became more and more popular, and more and more consumers had purchasing power. Wristwatches became fashionable, and Glashü tte followed the trend.

Because Glashü tte has made unremitting efforts towards the goal, devoted herself to reforming the accuracy of products and adhering to the spirit of pursuing Excellence, she has achieved many wonderful treasures.

Glashü tte's factory has a history of more than 160 years, completely retaining the tradition of German watchmaking technology, and each watch has reached the industrial standards in this region. Glashü tte's original factory can complete the invention and design of products, make tools and spare parts, and then assemble, polish and package products.

German watches have a unique style, and so do Glashü tte watches. German industry pays more attention to technology, with high technical content, strong functionality and durable products. The German watch industry also maintains this tradition. In addition, German watches generally do not pay attention to the design of dial like Swiss watches, and the size of watches is not as exquisite as Swiss watches. The design of German watches is simple and practical. Today, Glashü tte's patent is still talked about by people, which laid the foundation for the German watchmaking industry. Glashü tte not only gathers numerous leading watchmakers, but also many watchmakers, hands and balance wheel manufacturers, and provides parts made in Germany for companies committed to developing high-quality watches.

Glashü tte is not only a model of German precision watch industry, but also the most important watchmaking center in contemporary times, keeping pace with Swiss watchmaking industry.
