About a.b.art Swiss Made Watches
Germanic Heritage in Swiss Watchmaking • Understated German Aesthetics
Brand Story and Development:
a.b.art watches originated in 1991 in the small southern German town of Freiburg, focusing on the design trends of minimalist aesthetics and functionalism. This approach is combined with Switzerland's centuries-old tradition of pursuing high-quality watchmaking. As the brand name a.b.art watches (authentic and basic watch) suggests, it aims to convey a watchmaking art style of "precise quality" and "simple, unpretentious" elegance to every wearer.
Initially, a.b.art watches were sold only in Germany and Switzerland. To accommodate a surge in global sales, the brand was integrated into the independent Swiss watch factory Fashiontime Ltd. in Biel in 2003, which then took charge of product manufacturing and sales. To date, a.b.art watches have expanded their business reach worldwide.
Milestones:
