An iconic design and a true classic. Developed in 1944 by the Swiss Federal Railways, the SBB, for their train stations, it was first launched by Mondaine in 1986 as a wristwatch. The design has stood the test of time and remained unchanged ever since. The simple and clear look indicates the influence of the Bauhaus style and reflects sustainability and clarity. This watch is a true statement: a Swiss original. Mondaine's story begins with a passion for Swiss watchmaking that dates back to 1951. Founder, Erwin Bernheim, had a vision for creating iconic timepieces that would stand the test of time. Today, they continue to honor that legacy with a traditional approach to watchmaking, emphasizing craftsmanship, design, and sustainability. At their factory in Switzerland, they produce all watches and clocks to ensure Swiss-made quality and exceptional standards. As a family-owned company, with André and Ronnie Bernheim at the helm, they take pride in their Swiss heritage and pay homage to Switzerland with their precision, Swiss design and dedication to a sustainable future.
