The maker that produces Timex watches is Timex Group B.V. from the United States of America. Its headquarters is in Middlebury, Connecticut. The company also has operations in the Philippines, China, and India; its full-fledged operations are in Mexico, France, the UK, and Canada.
In the year 1854, the company began its journey with the name ‘Waterbury Clock’ at Naugatuck Valley, Connecticut. At that time this place was called the ‘Switzerland of America’. In 1880, Waterbury Watch was the first company to bring out the first mechanical and inexpensive watch to keep in your pocket. The company also made wristwatches during WWI. This type of watch became a trend at that time. Waterbury Watch is also known for its first Mickey Mouse clock.
During the time of WWII, the company changed its name to the US Time Company. It brought out the Timex wrist watch which continued for three decades. The selling pitch for this watch was its ‘torture tests’. The watch would go through severe tests such as dropping it from the top of Grand Coulee Dam, tying it up with the propeller of a motor, etc. The advertisement helped push the sales through the roof. Later the company changed its name to the Timex Corporation and from there Timex Group. It sold more than one billion watches worldwide.
