Tutima
Tutima was introduced as the Glashütter Uhrenfabrik AG (UFAG) about 1930 in Germany. Pocket and wristwatches of this brand were equipped with movements of its sister company UROFA (including Calibre 19 and Calibre 58).
In 1941 the pilot's chronograph was introduced under this brand name for the German Luftwaffe (air force). In 1945 the UROFA and the UFAG brands disappeared into the Tutima brand name.
It was not until 1956 when Werner Pohlan, a former employee of UROFA, again used this traditional name for his watches.
On 7 April 1970 Delecate registered at the German Patent Office the traditional name Tutima, formerly established by the UFAG and operates since then under the name of Tutima-Uhrenfabrik GmbH (Tutima watches company).
Erwin Brückemann — whose craftsmanship was decisively influenced by Paul Johne and by a watchmaking education in the Kurtz company — was then responsible for watch technology at Tutima. The pilot's chronograph of the Bundeswehr (German armed forces) with the calibre Lemania 5100 was a specialty of the house.
