Digital watches

Armitron started making digital watches in the 1970s with LED displays. The LED displays consumed so much battery life that, in 1977, the company stopped production.[9] Armitron subsequently began manufacturing their digital watches with LCD displays,[1] which eventually became the industry standard.

Automatic movements

In 2007, Armitron began manufacturing automatic watches.[10][11]
