Founded in 1923 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, by Mr. Bernheim and Mr. Luthy, Timor became a renowned Swiss watchmaker known for durable, high-quality timepieces, most notably as one of the "Dirty Dozen" suppliers for the British military during WWII. After surviving the quartz crisis and going dormant, the brand was revived in 2015 to produce modern, military-inspired field watches, with headquarters moving to the UK in 2018.
