rare “Armin” Armitron 100 40/6491 digital watch 1980-89 Years “AMERICA’S WATCH”

Description: Armitron is a watch brand manufactured by E. Gluck Corporation, headquartered in Little Neck, New York.[1] It was founded in 1975 by Eugen Gluck. As of 1999, Armitron had the fifth largest share of all watch purchasers, by brand, in the United States. In the late 1970s, E. Gluck Trading Company and Armin Corporation severed ties. E. Gluck Corporation became a privately held company and retained the Armitron brand. As watch technology evolved and LED technology became less practical, LCD (liquid crystal display) displays were integrated into Armitron watches. Combined with Japanese quartz movements, these LCD watches were extremely accurate and durable. Advanced functionality, such as alarms and chronographs were later incorporated to enhance the benefits of this precise timekeeper. At the time of Armitron's founding, E. Gluck Corporation (then E. Gluck Trading Company) was a subsidiary of Armin Corporation. It specialized in LED-powered, five-function (hour, minutes, second, day and date) digital watches. The Armitron brand name is a combination of “Armin” and “electronics”. Often using cases from Switzerland and bracelets from Hong Kong, Armitron watches were built in a custom-designed factory in Arlington, Texas. This vintage Armitron 100 40/6491 digital watch is a classic timepiece from the 70s and 80s, pre-G-shock. The black bezel, case, and band give it a sleek and sporty look, while the black digital display makes it easy to read. It has a water resistance of 100 meters (10 ATM) and comes with its original box and papers As of the 2021 season, Armitron is a clock sponsor at Yankee Stadium
