About Candino:

In 1947 Adolf Flury-Hug founded Candino in
Herbetswil, Switzerland. The company didn't
make their first watch until 1956.

In 1954 Kurt Flury joined the firm by opening a sales office
in Biel-Bienne,under the management of Armin Flury.
By 1956 a factory was constructed in Herbetswil which
had 80 employees.

On January 16,2001 Candino was bought by
Miguel Rodriguez,the proprietor and CEO of
the Festina Lotus SA. from Kurt Flury.
