Just stumbled across this brand while looking around. Did any of you guys see them, or maybe hear about
them before? ..They are Szanto watches, an American watch company founded by Luminox founder Barry
Cohen, that focuses on vintage inspired watches, and also giving them a modern update with bigger sizes,
as well as the use of quartz movements. Which helps the watches be less expensive, and be able to have a
wider audience.
Evidently Szanto's designers appreciated the look of older military watches from the early 20th century, and
even use slogans like "Time Rediscovered", and "Everything Old is New Again". Actually just saw these over
at Arizona Fine Time guys, and then looked around for information about them.
A few pictures, and links for you...
