When did Waltham watches go out of business?
1 Answer

Waltham watches went out of business in 1957 when the original owners of the Waltham Watch Company filed for bankruptcy. However, that wasn't the end of the Waltham brand. Until the 1980s, a new owner produced Waltham watches in the Waltham Watch Company's former factory. Today, Waltham S.A. continues to manufacture mechanical watches that bear the Waltham name.
