Magno
The Magno collection of men’s watches introduces a new 40mm case with striking edges and different dials. Classic design embellished with Jowissa signature style makes it the must-have watch for smart and casual occasions
Made for greatness
Magno, the new collection of men’s watches, brings a little extra to the classic timepiece. The new 40mm case is perfectly sized for those who want a balanced look on the wrist – not too small, not too large. In keeping with Jowissa heritage, Magno’s focus is on combining a unique look with a reliable timepiece made in Switzerland, such as bold dials incorporating handsome blue-gold moon phase displays. Or choose from striking wood-effect dials for something definitely different.
Each dial, whether wood-effect or a striking colour, creates a bold contrast to the soft and supple alligator-embossed genuine leather strap. The striking watch case also has distinctive edges and a standout crown factored into the design. Extra detail that is out of the ordinary is very much part of our signature look. As Magno translates as “great”, you can trust this collection to live up to its reputation.

FAQ
What is the meaning of the brand name JOWISSA?
The name Jowissa is a combination of the surname and lastname of the company founder Josef Wyss. He founded Jowissa in the village of Bettlach, Switzerland in 1951. Jowissa has been active and in business without interruption since then.
Can I wash my leather band with water?
Leather bands should not be washed with water. For cleaning your strap refer to your local watch dealer to get a special leather cleaning product.
Can I adjust the length of my steel or ceramic bracelet?
Yes, the length of our steel and ceramic bracelets can be adjusted to fit an individual wrist size. When you order with jowissa.com we shorten the bracelet for you free of charge. Optionally your local watch dealer may also offer the bracelet adjustment as a service.
Is my watch water resistant?
A Jowissa watch is tested for 3 to 20 ATM water resistance depending on the collection.
3 ATM: Watches tested for 3 ATM should not be worn when bathing or showering. They are build to withstand light rain, sweat and brief water contact.
5 ATM: Watches tested for 5 ATM are made to withstand rain, sweat and short swims.
10 ATM: Short dives, swim and other water sports are ok
20 ATM: Deep Dives, swims and other water sports are ok.

How long will the battery of my watch last?
The expected battery life is 2 to 4 years depending on external factors like heat and cold. Jowissa uses standard silver oxide battery cells in combination with high quality and low energy consuming Swiss quartz movements.
What is a moon-phase complication?
The moon-phase indication is a device serving to visualize on the watch dial the various appearances adopted by the Earth's satellite in the course of a lunar cycle: it may be waxing, full, waning or entirely hidden by the shadow of the Earth - and thus referred to as a new moon.
These different phases are traditionally represented by a mobile disk bearing two diametrically opposite depictions of the Moon alternately appearing through an aperture. The latter is cut out so as to provide a visual simulation of the Moon's waning and waxing episodes. As soon as the first interpretation vanishes, the second instantly comes on the scene. Moon phases may also be indicated by means of a hand pointing to various symbols, or by a three-dimensional sphere spinning on its axis, and of which one half is light-colored while the other is dark.
The mechanical difficulty of moon phases lies in the unusual interval between two full moons. By the 20th century, this complication had become essentially a romantic feature.
