For practical reasons, the watch moved from the vest pocket to the wrist at the beginning of the 20th century.
In the first examples, the eyelets were simply soldered to the case of pocket watches, but a rapid race for technology, form and additional functions, which are commonly referred to as "complications", soon followed.
