In 1944 Hans Hilfiker designed a clock that ensured the synchronization of the entire rail system which furthered Switzerland`s image as the most punctual country in the world. Based on Hilfiker`s classic design, Mondaine`s original watch and clock collection has been named as one of the ten classic watch-making designs of Switzerland. Based on the clock towers throughout the Swiss railway stations, these classic Swiss watches feature functionality that is affordable and stylish.
