          The difference between Swiss grade and Asian grade watches lies in the material of the case used as well as the movement. Asian grade watches use 316L steel while Swiss grade watches are made with 904L steel which is more durable and rust and corrosion resistant. Swiss grade watches are made with replica machinery to match Swiss technology and standards so higher precision and finishing can be expected.

          ABOUT THE COLLECTION

          1904. Louis granted the wish of his friend, the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos Dumont: to be able to tell the time while flying. This was the birth of one of the first ever wristwatches. Featuring a geometric shape and exposed screws, the watch quickly became one of the Maison's watchmaking icons. The Santos rose to the ranks of a classic that would defy the hands of time.
