Jillian Robredo, the daughter of late Interior and Local
Government Secretary Jesse Robredo, is now using her father's watch, which the
well-loved public servant was wearing during his fatal crash of the small Piper
Seneca into the sea in Aug 2012.
Despite the impact of the crash and being submerged in 55
meters of saltwater for nearly three days, the watch -- a Philippine-made Timex
-- is still working, according to Robredo's wife Atty. Leni Robredo.
Timex is known for its water-resistant watches. Although watch
labeled as “water-resistant,” a watch is usually not designed for long-term use
in water-depths. But one that has the mark “diver’s” may withstand the
corrosive effects of salt water.
Most Timex watches are made in the company's factory in
Cebu.
Timex has about half a thousand workers in the Timex Cebu,
they have been using the most advance bonding equipment from ASM… A World No. 1
Semiconductor equipment supplier with headquarters base in Singapore Yishun.
