An excellent, data-rich #longread about the #Swiss #watch industry, the #quartz crisis of the early 1980s, the emergence of #Swatch, and the subsequent revival of #mechanical watches after the year 2000, from a magazine I hadn't heard of before. It's a must-read if you're interested in #watches!

Edit: The article gets the Hayek/Thomke history (almost) right.

Elmar Mock’s sketch of the Swatch watch, presented to Ernst Thomke in their meeting on 27th March 1980:

Hand-drawn technical sketch by Elmar Mock showing a cross-section of the early Swatch watch concept, presented to Ernst Thomke on 27 March 1980. The drawing, made on graph paper, depicts the domed PMMA watch glass, the monocoque plastic case, integrated movement support and printed circuits, all labelled in French. The coloured sections (blue for the glass, green for the movement parts, red for the case) illustrate how the components fit together in a simplified, compact construction.

Une année "difficile" pour Swiss sur le plan comptable

Les billets d'avion à 100 francs ne seront plus réalistes à l'avenir, avertit mercredi dans la presse le directeur général de la compagnie aérienne Swiss Jens Fehlinger. Le carburant durable est plus cher que le carburant traditionnel et il faudra en consommer davantage, explique-t-il. #Swiss #news

Swiss-CEO hält 100-Franken-Flugtickets nicht mehr für realistisch

100-Franken-Flugtickets sind nach Aussagen von Swiss-CEO Jens Fehlinger bei "CH Media" in Zukunft nicht mehr realistisch. Nachhaltiger Treibstoff sei teurer als herkömmlicher und davon müsse künftig mehr getankt werden. #Swiss #news
