Hi everybody, I'm found about MARVIN watches, a swiss brand founded in 1850 by Marc et Emmanuel Didisheim in Saint Imier ( CH),moved in 1894 in La CHAUX DE FONDS (CH). I would like to know more about this brand, and why it took the name of MARVIN. I just kwow it was an american customer. If you know something about this Marvin, or about this brand, please let me know.

Zaf -

Please delete my prior post. I didn't realize it was a site that sold watches.

Sorry,

Thanks Zaf!

FYI, there's a link on the left side of the page, entited "The Makers".

Click that, then you will get histories of dozens of other watch companies. Some famous, some obscure.

Maybe you guys can trade historical information on your respective sites.

Take care,

Hi gatorcpa-
Thanks for the historical information link all in one place. Beats looking for it as you search to find bits and pieces.
