TICK TOCK

Masterpieces of the Swiss-German watchmaker’s art.

The exhibition “TICK TOCK" shows Masterpieces of the Swiss-German watchmaker’s art.
24 May to 9 November 2008

Longines, Rado, Chopard – watchmaking in Switzerland is chiefly concentrated in the French-speaking part of the country. The exhibition “TICK TOCK – Masterpieces of the Swiss-German Watchmaker’s Art” sheds light on the little-known fact that between 1400 and 1800, German-speaking Switzerland was also home to an exceptionally diverse and high-quality watchmaking tradition.

“TICK TOCK” is the first exhibition of watchmaking to be held in Schwyz.
