September's brand of the month.
Launched at the Swiss Watch Fair in 1963, this model was specially designed for travellers, businessmen and tourists. It allowed two different time zones to be read simultaneously and combined two movements: on the left, a self-winding movement with a calendar to keep track of the time and date at home or in the office, and on the right, a movement for reading the local time.
The two-timer model was also sold in Islamic countries under the name "Wisdom", depicting the time of prayer in Mecca.
The "Denis Diver Universel", an automatic calendar watch with a stylish steel case, was a diver's watch launched at the Basel Watch Fair in 1966. Waterproof to a pressure of 20 atmospheres (a depth of over 600 feet), the watch was fitted with a mobile ring that displayed the time in the world's major cities.
ARDATH's "Reefguard Line" watches became famous for their reliability at depths of up to 900 feet and are now highly sought after on the secondary market. It became a signature watch, known as the diver's watch, with the diver on the dial and case back ("scuba dude").
