In today's video, I would like to turn to France as a commonly overlooked centre of watchmaking which has shaped and been shaped by everything from high-horology to military watches.
Featured Watches:
- Cartier Tank
- Breguet 2516
- Type XX & Type XXI (Breguet, Dodane, Vixa, Auricoste)
- Tudor Submariner (Marine Nationale)
- Alain Silberstein
