| Last year, the Contrôle officiel suisse des chronomètres (COSC) issued 1,174,227 certificates, or 7.7% more than in 2004. The number of registered pieces rose by 7.4% to 1,222,396 (1,168,046 in the mechanical category, +5.7%, and 54,350 in the quartz category, +64.6%). The spectacular rise of the quartz chronometer should however be seen in perspective: it is probably due in large part to a catch-up effect with respect to the previous financial year. It is interesting to note also that of the 53,329 certificates for quartz chronometers, 52,740 were awarded to Breitling products. In terms of manufacturers, there is again no change to the top three rankings, which have not changed in recent years:
All other applicants obtained fewer than 1000 certificates.
