Along with a lot of watch and jewelry companies this company widely introduced its novelties The Chinese Timekeeper 2012 at BaselWorld 2012. The Chinese Timekeeper is a young watch company of Chinese origin, which in the first place puts the individuality and exclusivity. Adrien Choux is founder and owner of The Chinese Timekeeper, the idea of creating of which appeared in 2009. For him was interesting the fact that during the Song Dynasty day was divided into 100 quarters of an hour.
Adrien wanted to revive some peculiar features of the time measurement in this period. He was inspired by the great inventions of famous Chinese scientists, whose names are associated with the discoveries in various fields. One of them is Zhang Heng (78-139) - an influential scientist of the Han Dynasty, Chinese philosopher, thinker and lexicographer, writer, poet, statesman, scientist, who owns a number of discoveries and inventions in mathematics, astronomy, mechanics, geography and seismology.
Its inspiration the watchmaker The Chinese Timekeeper also found in the achievements of the Chinese astronomer, statesman, poet, a watchmaker and engineer Su Song (1020-1101) - ambassador of Song Dynasty, the inventor of the tower astronomical clock, driven by water. For the company The Chinese Timekeeper the inventions of Su Song have become not only a source of inspiration for the opening of the company, but were also embodied in the design of watches. Gorgeous wrist watches of the company The Chinese Timekeeper have original designs and resemble Chinese pagodas. The pagoda is a monumental Buddhist place of worship.

So, at the beginning of the video clip was presented brief information of the company. The company The Chinese Timekeeper is the first manufacturer in China, producing luxury watches, in which clearly can be traced the Chinese culture and heritage.
I will not judge the company too harshly, but perhaps the people who appreciate the real watch tradition and quality, will turn to other manufacturers. However, given the fact that China is rapidly extending its influence throughout the world, it is not surprising that the watch industry is also included in this global expansion.
So, at BaselWorld 2012 the company introduced two collections. The main feature of The Chinese Timekeeper watches has become their case, which form reminds the Song Dynasty pagoda, which can be more clearly seen in the video clip. After was demonstrated a novelty, which release was timed to the Dragon Year by the eastern calendar.
Watch case of this model with dragon also consists of four parts and is reminiscent of the structure of the Chinese culture as a pagoda. The black dial is decorated with a dragon. All models have been produced in extremely limited edition of just 18, 28 and 38 pieces, which is quite interesting for the Chinese manufacturer.
