Ollech & Wajs (O&W) is a Swiss watch brand renowned for its durable, precision timepieces, particularly favored by military personnel, pilots, and divers. Established in 1956 by Joseph Ollech and Albert Wajs in Zurich, the brand built a legacy on creating rugged, functional watches designed for professionals. Key features of O&W watches include their military and tool watch heritage, Swiss-made movements like ETA and Sellita for reliability, and robust construction with anti-magnetic shielding and high water resistance. The brand’s designs prioritize legibility and utility, with luminous markers and clean dials, making them suitable for both professional and casual wear. Notable models include the OW P-101, a modern pilot’s watch, the OW Caribbean, a dive watch historically used by the French Navy, and the OW C-1000, a tough chronograph built for extreme conditions. After a period of inactivity, O&W was revived in the 2000s, staying true to its roots of producing no-nonsense, high-performance watches. Today, it remains a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate Swiss craftsmanship with a military-inspired aesthetic.
