In 1897 the Original Swiss Army™Knife was created in the small village of Ibach,
Switzerland. Since that time, Victorinox®has become known in more than
100 countries for precision, quality, functionality and versatility.
This century old heritage has been extended to Swiss Army Watches and Timepieces.
Each reflects the ingenious design and outstanding durability we’ve come to stand
for over the years. Uncompromising craftsmanship makes these watches worthy
to carry the cross and shield emblem that symbolizes the legend of Victorinox and
the Swiss Army Brand.
Whether you’re going around the corner or around the globe, our classically styled
watches will make sure that you’re equipped for life’s adventures. No matter what
those adventures might be.
