Armitron identifies Eugen Gluck as its founder. Its About Us page says Gluck survived Auschwitz, later found refuge in New York City, and started first a bakery and then a watch business with his wife Jean. The same page says Armitron has been matching people with watches since 1975.
On its own site, Armitron presents its main historical distinction in connection with digital watches. The About Us page says the brand led the way in the digital revolution of the 1980s. A 50th Anniversary page also says Armitron made its mark in the 1970s with the launch of its first LED watch.
Collections and product groupings shown on the site have included 50th Anniversary, Eugen, automatic watches, digital watches, men’s watches, and women’s watches. The automatic collection page identifies the Blueprint as part of that range, and the site also features the Eugen watch as a 50th Anniversary model named for Eugen Gluck.
The About Us page says Bobbie Gluck, Eugen Gluck’s daughter, serves as CEO. Armitron’s FAQ says new watches come with a limited lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship, excluding the battery, case, strap, crystal, and bracelet. The FAQ also lists authorized service centers and customer support at (866) 631-0342.
