Beginning today, the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie (FHH), the foundation for the promotion of Fine Watchmaking, will be presenting its first special exhibition in Germany, “The World of Complication Watches”, at the MUNICHTIME 2008 watch exhibition. Visitors will be able to explore the fascinating world of complication watches – some of them counting amongst the most intricate works of their time – at the Aktionsforum Praterinsel in Munich from October 31st to November 2nd, 2008.

The FHH will be presenting around 65 historical wristwatches and pocketwatches in special acknowledgement of Southern Germany’s watchmaking tradition. The unique
