Schwarz Etienne
Founded in 1902 by husband and wife team Paul Arthur Schwarz and Olga Etienne in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Schwarz Etienne today continues to reside in the cradle of watchmaking but creates incredibly contemporary-looking wristwatches. Privately owned (by entrepreneur, Raffaello Radicchi), Schwarz Etienne is committed to building most of its own watch components in-house, including the pendulum. Top collections include the Fiji, with artful dials, modular construction, and a hint of diamonds, the mechanical Roswell with in-house-made hairspring and so much more.
