FAQ

What does “Swiss Made” actually mean?
A watch may be labelled “Swiss Made” only if it meets Swiss legal requirements. Its movement must be Swiss, the movement must be cased in Switzerland, the completed watch must be inspected in Switzerland, and at least 60% of the manufacturing costs of the watch as a whole must be generated in Switzerland. Jowissa watches are assembled and quality-controlled in Bettlach, Switzerland.
On what wrist does a man wear a watch?
Traditionally, a man wears his watch on the left wrist. This custom originated because the majority of people are right-handed, and wearing a watch on the non-dominant hand protects the timepiece from damage and keeps the dominant hand free for writing or working. However, the modern rule is practical: wear your watch on the wrist opposite your dominant hand. Therefore, if you are left-handed, it is perfectly acceptable to wear your watch on the right wrist.
What is the meaning of the brand name Jowissa?
The name Jowissa is derived from the name of company founder Josef Wyss. He founded the business in Bettlach, Switzerland, in 1951, and Jowissa has operated continuously since then.
Can Jowissa tell me the value of an old or vintage Jowissa watch?
Jowissa does not provide market valuations for vintage watches. Value depends on factors such as condition, rarity, provenance, original packaging and current collector demand. For an appraisal, contact a specialist vintage-watch dealer, auction house or qualified horological appraiser. Jowissa may not have complete archive information for every historical model.
Is my watch water resistant?
A Jowissa watch is tested for water resistance from 3 to 30 ATM, depending on the collection.
3 ATM: Watches tested to 3 ATM should not be worn while bathing or showering. They are built to withstand light rain, perspiration and brief contact with water.
5 ATM: Watches tested to 5 ATM are designed to withstand rain, perspiration and brief contact with water. They are not intended for swimming or diving.
10 ATM: Suitable for swimming and other surface water activities. Not intended for diving.
20 ATM: Suitable for swimming, water sports and recreational diving.
Always follow the water-resistance rating and product specifications for your exact model.
Is a Chronograph different from a Chronometer?
Yes, these terms are often confused but mean different things. A Chronograph is a watch with a built-in stopwatch function (buttons to start, stop, and reset). A Chronometer is a specific certification given to a high-precision watch movement (usually mechanical) that has passed rigorous accuracy tests by COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute). A watch can be both, but "Chronograph" refers to the function, while "Chronometer" refers to the accuracy rating.
Can I leave my chronograph running all the time?
While possible, it is generally not recommended for battery-powered quartz watches. Leaving the chronograph function running continuously drains the battery significantly faster than standard timekeeping. To preserve battery life, we suggest stopping and resetting the chronograph hands to zero when you are not actively timing an event.
What is a Dress Watch?
A dress watch is an elegant, slim-profile timepiece designed to be worn with formal attire, such as business suits or evening wear. Unlike sports watches, dress watches focus on minimalism and sophistication.

For Men: It must be thin enough to slide easily under a shirt cuff (the "Cuff Test").

For Women: It often acts as jewelry, featuring refined materials or faceted glass to complement evening outfits.

Key Features: Simple dials, leather or mesh straps, and a lack of bulky buttons or bezels.
