Concord WatchesThin is in at Concord. The Concord watch company started in 1908 by two young Swiss craftsmen with a passion to create the world's thinnest watch. In 1979, the company achieved this with the release of the Delirium which was only 1.98 mm thin.
The Concord Company is now part of the Movado Group, but the name still stands on its own, building on a reputation for building masterpieces.
Some highlights from history past and present:
- Harry Truman gifted several world leaders with Concord watches in the wake of victory in 1945.
- Concord designs were admired and imitated by Cartier and Tiffany
Warranty
