Executive Director of WWMMondaine: the iconic official Swiss railways watch
If you have ever been in a Swiss railway station, you already know the Mondaine design even if you don't realise it: that ultra-white dial with the red paddle seconds hand is one of the icons of twentieth-century design. And you can wear it on your wrist.
