EBEL 1911—a Testimony to Courage and Change
More than 100 years of company history are built into today's EBEL models. The watches in the 1911 collection take their beholders back to the early days of the brand in a special way. As the name of the line suggests, the diverse designs refer to the founding year of the Swiss watch specialist. When Eugène Blum and his wife Lévy applied for registration of the EBEL brand in that year, they were faced with a complicated market dominated primarily by pocket watches. The couple's courage to bet on change and to significantly drive it forward with the development of wristwatches designed for women is thus all the more remarkable. The history of the collection bears witness to courage, change, and ultimately success. So it's no wonder that today's models in the line proudly display the figure 1911 on their dials.
EBEL 1911—Discreetly Luxurious to Sport
Ladies' watches have always taken center stage in the collection. When looking into the details, however, you can see the zeitgeist of the early 20th century. The models in the 1911 line impress with their petite sizes, fine materials, and understated luxury. An accentuated use of diamonds further emphasizes the feminine glamor and turns these models into true pieces of jewelry. In addition, the latest EBEL collection also has its sight on men's watches. Although basic decorative style elements such as the 1911 above the date window and the clear Arabic numerals have been retained, the dynamic-looking versions for men surprise with sporty attributes in addition to their technical sophistication.
