FROM THE INTERNET: "Hans Winterhalder founded HAWINA (however this trade mark was not registered until 1925), clock company for worldwide exports and had 800 employees in Germany, England and Russia around 1908. The company fell on hard times and was purchased by the Junghans Brothers Enterprise. HWN: Hans Winterhalder in Nuremburg. Hans was the just about the last of the Winterhalder’s of the highly regarded Winterhalder & Hoffmeyer involved in the clockmaking business. It is said that he tried to get the company back together after WWI and made some nice clocks but had some quality issues. Colonial of Zeeland used quite a few of the Hawina movements during the 1920's."
