Time never comes to a standstill, that is its nature. And time has become
valuable. Time has always been "made" and interpreted by mankind.
When people started to observe "time" they focused on sunrise
and sunset only. In the High Middle Ages they started to develop ever more
sophisticated methods of measuring time. In today's world we feel the urge
to save time. We are obsessed by the need to win time. Our desire for the
peace of our personal time can be satisfied by the elegance of
exclusive clocks. The family business of Franz Hermle & Sohn was founded
