The History and background of the Tutima are attached to the Glashutte watch that was manufactured and made in 1844 by Ferdinand Lange in Germany. The Tutima watch’s roots don’t expand and extend long ago, the background story of this watch started in 1927, and it was from the Glashutte Deutsche that made and manufactured this watch in 1918. It was introduced and distributed to the market that same year.
They introduced and distributed this watch to compete with the other Swiss watches available in the market during that time. During the late 1920s, it was one of the company’s challenging times because they competed with many competitors who also sold swiss watches. The DPUG, under inflation, collapsed in 1922 August, and It cost them a lot.
The Original Glashutte Tutima:
During the year 1938, the Tutima and Glashutte Watches started to strategize and plan for what they can become one of the famous watches of Glashutte. They are still choosing if they will pick the Tutima Glashutte or the Reich air force with the pilot’s timepiece. The war, the defense, and the factories demanded have become the perfect timepiece suitable for anyone.
During the manufacturing and production, the pilot’s chronograph style and design need to be a shock-resistant watch with a high acceleration like many diving planes you can see during the F1 racing. The watch pressure can go up to 1.5 atmospheres for an hour, and the complete rate of the performance is defined in -5 to +12 seconds, and the temperature of the range is at 20 to 50 degrees.
The first watch of Tutima pilot was made in a unique and classic style of a timepiece with a bezel that is fluted and can be ready for reference on the significant fluted marker case. It also has a crown that is oversized with an ergonomic chronograph and a button, and a night reading element. This watch also represents and features the flyback that can work and function as the tempo stop.
Way back in 1942 and 1947, about 34,000 Tutima watches were manufactured, and most of them were used by the military pilots and airforce in Germany. Urfa made a new caliber style and design for it with a caliber 58 that features a 60 minutes counter chronograph, monometallic screw, wheel switching, and the flyback function.
DR. Kurtz And Ufag:
Dr. Kurtz was the first jurist that lived in a small town in Hamburg, and he was the one who made the Glashutte watch where they manufacture all of the Glashutte eyes. Dr. Ufag came from the DPUG. They are the ones who made the company work because they can always find a way to make their watch elegant and presentable in any design.
The ups of the economy during the 1940s has helped them make and establish a more competitive market that can compete in all swiss watch design that is available in the market. Urfa and Ufag’s production style and methods were conceived by the swiss strategy automated by manufacturing techniques and processes.
Urfa then concentrated on their manufacturing and development, and they have produced a new and a lot of wristwatches, and one of the top and leading brands they have is the Tutima collection. In 1939, the government needed to separate the factories for armament 1940, and they stopped all of their manufacturing and production of wristwatches. They didn’t make a new style and design until the war was completely finished.
Titanium Pioneer:
Many people might not realize that the Tutima Glashutte has the same proponent of the titanium mechanical watch with a dark and silver color. It has alloy titanium and has the lightest metal that is being used for all of its wristwatches. It is attractive and has a lightweight design with a tensile that can be used to high temperatures.
The alloys of this watch have a titanium alloy, and it can be used in the construction of air, naval guided missiles, ships, and has armor plating that is being used on all military tanks. This is resistant to corrosion with the lowest density, and the alloy that is being designed in this watch can also be suitable for oversized watches. The modern Tutima is mixed and associated with aviation pilots.
Takeaway:
The Tutima watch style and design are among the top timepieces of Glashutte watch made in the 90 years of their watch production. This timepiece was created and manufactured to have the best level of quality perfection that can fit any outfit.
