Vintage Watches
At ZS Enterprise we have been collecting and dealing in vintage watches since 1993. When we talk of vintage watches we are mainly dealing with watches that date from the early 1900's through the 70's. Within this time span the watch industry evolved from the pocket watches of yesterday to the use of the modern day wrist watch. As the wrist watch developed from the early 1900's the form and functions offered by wrist watch makers changed from simple time only models to complex multi-function works of art. Today there is every imaginable type of wrist watch in every price range imaginable. When talking in terms of vintage watches most are going to fall in the category of a mechanical movement. Meaning there is an actual miniature machine within the watch case that keeps/reserves the power which runs the watch. When most people today think of a watches power supply they think of a small watch battery. This is were the attraction to vintage and modern mechanical watch comes in to play, in that when you wear a mechanical watch there is an engagement between you and the watch. One does not simply put on a vintage watch and forget about it they must engage themselves in the relationship between the timepiece and measuring of time.
