A Timeless Swiss Icon: The Original Railway Clock Design
Designed in 1944 and recognized worldwide, the MONDAINE Swiss Railways Clock remains a celebrated example of Swiss Bauhaus design. The distinctive red second hand moves with a smooth sweeping motion, ensuring effortless readability and legibility. With their unique minimalist dial and high-contrast aesthetics the new 25cm clocks stay true to this iconic design.
Where Durability Meets Aesthetics
The new MONDAINE wall clocks feature a bold 25cm case with carefully crafted matte frames in black or white, highlighting the clarity of the dial and reinforcing MONDAINE’s commitment to superior craftsmanship. These refined frames not only add to the clock’s timeless appeal but also ensure that they easily fit all interior styles.
The treatment of the aluminium case adds a practical detail as it makes the clock dust resistant. The sweeping movement of the second hand enhances the clock’s quiet operation, offering a blend of style and function. Perfectly sized, these clocks bring industrial design history to all spaces. Whether placed in a minimalist home, a professional workspace, or a contemporary living area, their iconic design makes a statement in any room.
The story behind the design
The original Swiss Railway Station Clock was designed in 1944 by Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) employee and engineer Hans Hilfiker. Created for Swiss railway stations, its simple, highly legible design made it effortless for passengers and station staff to read the time at a glance. In 1986, MONDAINE brought this legendary design into homes and wrists worldwide by launching the first Official Swiss Railways Station timepieces. Today, MONDAINE continues to celebrate this heritage with its latest 25cm wall clocks.
