Ask HN: Old British watch manufacturer now owned by Chinese company
Asking fellow horologist here.
A few days ago, I read about a British watch manufacturer (defuncted in 1920/1930s?) that is now owned by Chinese company, producing fashion brand watches.
I couldn't find the name at this:

Unfortunately, I cleared my browser history yesterday, so couldn't find it.
Maybe someone can help?
