But the technology was slow to catch on (it would&#039;ve meant a lot of retooling, etc). By the 1870s, I think it was already being used in the &#039;States, but in Europe (which is where I believe it was invented by Patek Philippe), key-operated watches lasted a lot longer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
