Ollech & Wajs is a Swiss watch manufacturer.

This watch brand was founded in 1956 in Zurich by Albert Wajs and Joseph Ollech.

Key milestones:

  • With the Caribbean 1000 from 1964, the brand introduced the first commercial diver’s watch certified for a water depth of 1,000 meters.
  • Starting in 1979, the company produced the Navitimer models from Breitling after acquiring Breitling’s rights and tooling.
  • The company has never sold quartz watches, only mechanical ones.
  • In 2017, a new collection of mechanical watches was introduced, including sports, military, pilot, diver’s watches, and chronographs.
