| pierre cardin Time Couture - A legend does not get old, it only gets grander. Pierre Cardin is more than a name, it is more than a brand, it is even more than �just� fashion. It is a universally known and recognized symbol, a label that embodies the fascination of style and has become synonymous with the French �savoir vivre�. In an international fashion environment scattered with new brands that are yet to achieve a commercially viable level of brand awareness, the potential of �brand monuments� like Pierre Cardin is immense. EganaGoldpfeil owns the brand rights in regard to watches and jewelry and thus has a special interest in developing and expanding those important assets. Just in time for new generations eager to discover the power of legendary fashion labels, Pierre Cardin gradually re-launched its collections of watches and jewelry in the business year 2005/2006. And the beginning of a new era started with a voyage to the core of the brand. The rich tradition became once more a source of inspiration. - http://www.pierrecardintime.com/

| ChronoTech - ChronoTech is a brand under Global Watch Industries. The success of the brand comes from the philosophy of the company, which initially focused on modern and attractive designs, and innovative details. The watches will inspire the buyer, primarily through its dazzling beauty � a brilliant combination of steel and polished stones of zirconium, shells of various forms and, of course, innovative form of glass � the prism, which as a magnet attracts the view of others. Despite the youthfulness of the brand, Chronotech became successful in the Italian market, and in many foreign countries : in Japan, in the Middle East, in much of Northern Europe and in the USA. Since February 1005, Chronotech became an official partner of Team Mild Seven Renault and this year will wear the prestigious role as Official Timekeeper of �Auguarandosi AC Milan� to tie its fate to a constant wake of successes and victories. - http://www.chronotech.com/

| Traser - Mb-microtec’s ability to manufacture trigalight® (Gaseous Tritium Light Source) is the result of decades of research and development in the field of radio luminescence. Small glass tubes are coated on the inside with a phosphorescent material, then filled with a minute amount of tritium gas and hermetically sealed by a laser. Electrons emitted from the gas excite the material to give off a cold light. Trigalight® can be manufactured to give off light in different colors. Trigalight® are self-activated and self-powered light sources. They function independently from a battery or any other source of outside energy. They never need recharging or servicing and do not require the push of a button. They are 100 times brighter than anything comparable and have a life span of more than 20 years. Mb-microtec created the world’s first Swiss made watch with Trigalight® technology. All Traser H3 watches are equipped with Trigalight® . They are an absolute must in the emergency, safety and protection sectors as well as in the armed forces. They are ideal for fans of adventure and sports. Traser H3 watches are top quality Swiss watches, extremely robust and reliable. - http://www.traserusa.com/

About atomic timekeeping:
All atomic watches receive a radio signal from the Caesium atomic clock, the world's most precise clock, accurate to 1 second in 1 million years.
The signal is encoded so that it can be transmitted in longwave radio form. The signal originates from the WWVB transmitter in Fort Collins, Colorado and is transmitted on a frequency of 60 kHz.
The atomic watches contain an antenna and internal program to receive and decode the radio signal. It is then uses the data to display the precise time. The watch maintains accuracy trough automatic nightly updates with the radio signal.
