That it was then and then Tissot's non-magnetic wristwatch in 1920

Charles Edouard Guillame was the one that discovered Invar and Elinvar, nope they are certainly not islands, but nickel based alloys which will withstand magnetic fields allowing a wristwatch to stay accurate. Other alloy-based materials add Glucydur and Nivarox that were widespread by watchmakers during the 1950's.Apart from using alloys, permanently of producing non-magnetic watches has been a conductive material to house the movement in a case.

As said before it was Vacheron Constantin that first developed these watches; in 1915 they introduced the 1st anti-magnetic pocket watch. That it was then and then Tissot's non-magnetic wristwatch in 1920, and then the first anti-magnetic chronograph by Vacheron Constantin in 1954.
