"Unusual, but has something!"
80s
Several brands of watches were introduced during the mid-to-late1900s, but the Sheffield watches are one of the most popular because they were cheap and aesthetically pleasing. The quality and durability of Sheffield watches are also remarkable as many of these watches are still in use today. These watches are now being auctioned online, and displayed and sold in antique shops and jewelry stores around the world. They may be battery operated, but most are wind-up models.
Even if the branding doesn't sound like it, Sheffield watches with mechanical movements were made exclusively in Switzerland. Intended for the English and American market, Sheffield was also known in Central Europe far beyond the borders of Switzerland.
