As for the semantics, horologists include watchmakers, clockmakers, timekeeping equipment techs and those involved in the study of timekeeping.

It’s driven by globalization and the need to grow the services revenue stream by leading brands. Chief among watch factories is that they make a small profit margin versus higher margin for repairs.
