“For a long time, the Swiss had a lock on watch making. They built the best watches money could buy, and by the 1940s, they produced 80 percent of all watches world-wide. In the late 1960s, when an inventor presented an idea for a new type of watch, Swiss watch companies rejected it. Believing his designed merit, the man took it to a company in Japan. The name of the company was Seiko. The design of the watch was digital and today, 80 percent of all watches use a digital design.” ( Maxwell, 1999: 50)
