Hodinkee Writes about "The World Watch War"

here's an interesting message on the Hodinkee blog, covering an article in Time magazine (June 1972), entitled "The World Watch War". Yes, the storm clouds were gathering, and the Swiss / mechanical watch industry barely survived.

A nice find by Hodinkee.
