The Victorinox Swiss Army Story

In 1884, Karl Elsener opened a cutlery workshop in Ibach-Schwyz, Switzerland with the help of his mother Victoria. Just like that, Victorinox Swiss Army was born.

In 1891, Elsener and his coworkers deliver knives for soldiers in the Swiss Army for the introductory time. Six years later, the company legally protected the names Swiss "Officer's" and "Sport Knife." The model later became known as the Original Swiss Army Knife.

Following Elsener's mother's death in 1909, the company integrated her name into the brand and unveiled it is well-known cross and shield emblem. Elsener arrived at the name Victorinox by combining the name Victoria with "inox," an abbreviation of the French word for rust-resistant steel, "inoxydable."

In 1989, Victorinox officially entered the timepiece business in the United States underneath the brand name Swiss Army. In 1999, Victorinox collaborators with the American TRG Group in St. Louis and enters into the global travel gear market. In 2001, the company launched a fashion line in the U.S. with a collection that delivers technical and tailored styling capturing the brand’s essence of practical luxury. If that wasn't enough, in 2007 Victorinox sets up Victorinox Swiss Army Fragrance AG, and in 2009 Victorinox Swiss Unlimited was launched.

Victorinox Swiss Army treasures it is heritage, the future is evenly inspiring. Innovation is at the heart of each Victorinox product it introduces, with stimulating technical progress all around all it is product categories.

Beautiful Watch
By Darrell R. Brauner
I perfectly love the watch. The bold orange face is a perfective shade and is very sporty. Not to small, not to large- just the right size for a normal sized guy. If I were 6'+ with huge wrists, I'd in all likelihood want a more spectacular watch. It is hard to find the right balance, but this is as close as it gets. I own a good deal of watches of all dissimilar prices and I am sure this one will become my each day watch.

I may at last tell the time!
By Picky Purchaser
I'm a woman, I love watches, I have at least 15 upscale, expensive, fashion beauties that look great on. But I can't tell what time it is on them unless I close one eye and hold my arm up to the light at just a sure angle. Want to be competent to see what time it is in a dark theater without lighting up the entire place with your (forbidden) cell phone? This is the watch! The luminous hands live up to their description, the water resistance is aweinspiring for beach/pool/tub or sink, and the orange dial is so hot. The band has sufficient holes in it to give a medium-sized woman a perfective fit out-of-the-box and once on, you can't even feel it! So comfortable. I think the dial diameter is perfect. It wasn't as big as I was expecting, actually. Totally recommend.
