About a.b.art Swiss Made Watches
Germanic Roots in Swiss Watchmaking Craftsmanship • Understated German Aesthetics
Brand Story and Development:
a.b.art watches originated in 1991 in the small southern German town of Freiburg, embracing a design philosophy centered on 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 style of watchmaking art that is "precisely crafted" and "simply unpretentious" to every wearer.
Initially, a.b.art watches were sold only in Germany and Switzerland. To accommodate rapidly growing global demand, the brand was integrated into the independent watch factory Fashiontime Ltd. in Biel, Switzerland, in 2003. This company then took charge of product manufacturing and sales. Today, a.b.art watches have a presence worldwide.
