Innovation and sustainability This modern classic presents itself in white with a strap made out of textile and cork in a light blue. Together with the iconic dial and its red second hand it is a real eye-catcher on every wrist. Thanks to the innovative strap system, the strap can be changed in seconds, which can give the watch a completely new look. The essence collection combines two core values of Mondaine: innovation and sustainability. We use the newest technologies to produce this collection of timepieces with renewable raw materials, such as castor oil, wool or cork. The packaging for the watch is made out of 100% recycled PET bottles. The essence collection reinterprets the original design of the Mondaine Swiss railways watch in a new, modern way. Mondaine has a long watchmaking tradition and our watches are synonymous with Swiss quality. They are manufactured by hand in our factory in Solothurn, Switzerland. Every watch is tested for water resistance up to 30 meters and comes with a 2 year international warranty.
