A "watch brand" is often—but incorrectly—used as a synonym of "watch manufacturer" or "watchmaker".Brands are distinct from manufacturers. There are brands of watches that are purely marketing constructs and are not associated with a specific company.

At the company’s time of establishment in the mid 1920s, many other watch manufacturers in Pforzheim used almost exclusively Swiss movements. These movements were delivered either completely or in parts. Factory workers in the companies assembled the individual parts.
