Switzerland is famous for its watches. However, this country didn't invent the watch. It was the British who did. Here is a story of how the watch was brought to Switzerland.
Many years ago, an Englishman traveled to Italy. This Englishman traveled in a carriage. On his way, he stopped in a small town called Geneva in Switzerland.
There was a carriage clock in it. This was the earliest kind of watch. A blacksmith's assistant happened to see the clock. He wanted to know what it was and asked the Englishman about it.
“It is a carriage clock,”said the man.“This machine can tell the time but it isn't working now.”The blacksmith's assistant wanted to try to repair it, so the traveler handed him the clock The assistant was a very clever man, so it was easy for him to repair it. He even remembered how it was made. As soon as the traveler had gone on his way, he made a watch of exactly the same type.
So the watch -making was started in Switzerland. Today, Swiss watches are sold in countries all over the world.
