He discovered the asteroid in Algeria and named it after the mathematician Paul Emile Appell. Paul Glocker, the founder of EBOSA S.A., was originally from Basel. He founded the company in the 1920s with its location in Granges/Grenchen. Appella as a brand was registered 1943 from the Roskopf watch movements manufacturer EBOSA SA and the company had some more watch brands like e.g. APPELL or later on APOLLO. Paul Glocker was in the watch business for several decades together with other members of his family. Later in 1963, they founded the “Manufacture de Montres Appella SA” in Granges / Grenchen, the same village like the seat of EBOSA SA. From the time of its inception it was clear that this brand is going to turn all cons in the watch market to pros and has been in the market as a market puller and leader. The enormous success of this brand in watch manufacturing is the real craftsmanship inherited from Paul Glocker, who himself was a talented craftsman. Paul Glocker has a fascination in watches and it is not a wonder as he hailed from Switzerland, his motherland and the land of World’s greatest watches. Earlier on Appella was famous for its travel alarm clocks and though the brand is producing clocks now antique Appella clocks are on sale on the net yet. Although the brand Appella was registered only in 1943, we strongly believe that the watch making history of Appella began earlier with EBOSA. Mr. Glocker respectively EBOSA was famous for own watch movements and early on had registered inventions. Appella is registered in more than 70 countries world wide and is more popular in CIS, Eastern Europe Middle East It is famed among the watch lovers with its imposing features, ornamental designs, high manufacturing standards and the guaranteed performance for many years. While speaking about the Appella Watches History, we can see that it has more than seventy years history behind it.

Many repairs will not be cheap, as most likely they will require replacement of non-standard parts (unlike most late model watches). Antique watches should not be beaten or dropped - because repairs may be expensive. Antique watches are generally NOT waterproof. This is because waterproofing was not in general production until the middle of the 20th century for most watches. Therefore you should protect your antique watch from exposure to moisture. If your watch becomes wet it should be dried off quickly. Carefully open all covers and use a hair drier to blow dry the movement, dial, covers, crown. This will reduce the amount of rust. If your watch becomes wet with any kind of salt water you should immediately immerse or spray your watch with fresh (no-salt) water to remove all the salt from the works before drying the watch completely. Any salt left in the watch will combine with moisture in the air to rust metal components of the movement, case etc. Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard. When adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only. Counter-clockwise adjustments may damage the movement. It is desirable to adjust the hands of your watch at the same time every day. An automatic or self-winding watch should be worn for at least 8 hours a day. It is a mechanical watch in which the mainspring is wound automatically as a result of natural motion of the wearer's arm, to provide energy to run the watch, making manual winding unnecessary. If you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours). Be careful and gentle when adjusting the movement speed (faster or slower). Don't make sharp movements, and don't touch other components in the movement especially the pendulum mechanism. Every 2-3 years it is necessary to service and oil vintage watches. If the course of your watches is worsening and the accuracy of the reduction in the duration of the clock (autonomy) from one fully wound spring - it need a service. IF the watch is dirty - allow the watch to run down, don't wind it again until you have it serviced by a qualified watch repair expert. Dust will absorb and remove important lubricants and cause the movement pieces to wear down. To clean the case, dial and crystal you should use a cloth that does NOT leave fibers as these may get caught up in the movement. Check with your Watch repair expert to get an appropriate cloth. Keep your antiques watch away from magnets. Strong magnetic fields may affect the accuracy of your watch since some vintage watches were made with iron based components in the movement. Most Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed. Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-7 minutes a day. Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good. Mechanical watch is not recommended to use for engage in extreme sports, and expose them to excessive vibration loads. Recoil force, which take on the clock, affect their reliability and precision. No matter how perfect was not anti-shock mechanism, there is always the chance of excessive load that details of the mechanism can not survive. Watch with calendar. It is not recommended to adjust, the date between 20.00 and 06.00, because at this time involved a mechanism for automatic adjustment date. Translation pointers calendars manually in this position arrows may damage the mechanism. Date changes should be made, relegating pre-clockwise to lower sector of the dial (for example, to position 6 (18.00) hours). Chronograph watches. In most cases, these watches contain the "start/stop" button and "reset" button. It is strongly recommended not to press the "reset" if the chronograph is running. Before you use the "Reset" button need to stop the chronograph by button "start/stop". Using the "reset" when running chronograph can damage the mechanism of most models of watches.
