Swiss folklore for the wrist

The Roma Ethno collection combines traditional Swiss aesthetics with modern watch design. Each model in this unique watch line is inspired by the nature and culture of the Swiss Alps - visible in the finely embroidered leather straps with edelweiss and other alpine flowers. Whether delicate white, bold red or calming blue - the color palette expresses alpine emotions.

With classic dials, Roman numerals and elegant cases in various sizes (from 26mm to 36mm), these watches are not only stylish accessories, but also an expression of a sense of home and craftsmanship. The flat stainless steel cases make them comfortable to wear, while the Swiss Made quality and 3 ATM water resistance guarantee suitability for everyday use.

Roma Ethno is more than just a watch - it is a declaration of love to Switzerland.
