The Sixties -- Swinging & Asymmetric: Elvis, hedonism, the Beatles & miniskirts. The Sixties were all shook up and even some watches fell out of form:

• 1961: Gilbert Albert designs the asymmetric Ricochet Line for Patek Philippe
• 1961: Gerald Genta designs the asymmetric Midas Line for Rolex
• 1961: Audemars Piguet publishes its two popular asymmetric models
• 1963: Jaeger LeCoultre presents the reference 390
• 1967: Cartier unveils its fabulous asymmetric Crash
• 1969: Omega launches the Andrew Grima "About Time"-Series
• 1972: Vacheron Constantin has the courage to present a asymmetric watch, finally: Prestige de la France
