About the 1971
Swiss Made
In the years leading up to 1971, the Swiss Made trademark developed into what we know today. Up until 1971, several rules and definitions existed for what constituted a Swiss Made watch. In 1971 the definition of Swiss Made was definitively confirmed as a trademark, and very little has changed in this regard since. Naturally, 1971 Automatic Swiss Made is named hereafter.
