Our Profile

| Peter Hug, President |
Switzerland is a unique country, where above all people appreciate practicality, punctuality and discretion. This little country brought forth a legendary object that epitomises all the qualities described above – the Swiss Army knife. Small, ingenious, sturdy, this key component in Switzerland's heritage is more than just an everyday object - it represents life in its entirety that, like the multiple blades of the knife, folds and unfolds at will.
Wenger watches
Wenger watches are designed to meet the most rigorous military requirements. The specifications would impress even the boldest watchmaker. Our watches must withstand use in extreme cold and humidity; withstand impacts, magnetism, and sudden changes in altitude. During the Swiss Commando Raid, which brings together military teams from fifteen countries, our watches are subjected to the worst that can be inflicted on a timepiece, and not on our laboratory test benches, but for real. As far as we are concerned, it is simply unthinkable that even one of our watches would not stand up to this terrible ordeal. The watches that we market throughout the world are exactly the same as those worn by the winning patrol in the Swiss Commando Raid. You can wear them without fear during your sporting or leisure activities.
The Wenger watch collection
Like Swiss Army knives, all of our timepieces are designed to be truly useful and to provide lasting satisfaction.The collection is split into various families. This range of Swiss Made watches caters to every aspect of traditional usage. Wenger's characteristic logo, the cross of Switzerland engraved in a red square with rounded corners sits in the twelve o'clock position on the case. Some models have silver escutcheons, for aesthetic reasons. Every Wenger watch is covered by a 3 year warranty and incorporates the same basic qualities as the Swiss Army knife - ingenuity, functionality, reliability and, above all, remarkable value for money.
