- Dr George Daniels MBE, DSc, FSA (né en 1926) est un horloger autodidacte anglais de génie, inventeur de l'échappement co-axial. Grand spécialiste d'Abraham Louis Breguet, George Daniels est un des rares horlogers capables de fabriquer de A à Z une montre à complications complète, y compris le boîtier et le cadran. Il est un ancien Master of the Clockmakers' Company de Londres et a été récompensé par leur Médaille d'or, un rare honneur. Il a construit sa première montre, une montre de poche à tourbillon avec échappement à détente pivotée en 1969. Une trentaine de pièces compliquées suivront. Depuis son apparition en 1999, l'échappement co-axial est désormais presque systématiquement utilisé par la marque horlogère suisse Omega qui en a soutenu le développement.Il est également l'auteur de plusieurs ouvrages techniques consacrés à l'horlogerie. Certains d'entre eux ont été traduits en français. Daniels donne d'ailleurs une description minutieuse de son échappement dans son ouvrage La Montre. (fr)
