Jowissa Watch Ltd.

Company Description

The Jowissa Watch Ltd. was founded by Josef Wyss in 1951. He started to manufacture watches in his own house in Bettlach, Switzer- land, with two fellow employees. During the first years they manufac- tured watches for other brands. The business developed very success- fully and made a physical expansion of the factory necessary in 1958. As a consequence a separate manufactury was built next to the resi- dence of Mr. Wyss and more employees Jowissa Watch Ltd.re recruited. During the 1970ies Jowissa Watch Ltd. was taken over by the second generation of the Wyss family. Josef&＃039;s sons Erich, Manfred and Lean- der Wyss decided to start manufacturing watches under the own brand "Jowissa", a shortcut of "Josef Wyss AG". At the same time Jowissa moved its headquarters and the manufactory to a new loca- tion in the center of the village Bettlach, Switzerland, where it’s still located today. Today, with ten employees, Jowissa is a successful small manufac- turer. The manufacturing of the watches takes place in collaboration with regional partners. The Jowissa watch selection is characterized by its diversity. Each ba- sic model is available in different colors, with leather straps or stain- less steel bracelets and in two different sizes. The design of Jowissa watches is best described with attributes like class, elegance, sporti- ness, timelessness.
