Swiss inventor and architect Ulrich Van-Heusen was a master craftsman who dedicated himself to his trade. He lived in an era when only the wealthy could afford a timepiece. But in 1923, Van-Heusen completed his first automatic calendar watch - only one of seven he ever completed. It displayed not only the time, but also the date, day and month; and it was the first to designate the difference between AM and PM. Van-Heusen named his brand Steinhausen after the region in Switzerland from where his family came. He was steadfast in his belief that wristwatches, not the prevalent pocket watch, would eventually become an item people could not live without. And he was correct! The Great Depression almost eliminated handmade watches of this quality. One that remains today fetched $300,000 at auction. Wristwatches became the must-have item for people of all social strata, but the distinguished gentry continued to buy Steinhausen's handcrafted marvels. Steinhausen continues its reputation of producing the finest workmanship and classy designs. And nowwe are pleased to re-introduce the original Steinhausen model with stylish updates. Like the original Steinhausen, each watch is painstakingly reproduced by hand from 185 genuine Swiss parts. Then it is so rigorously tested for two weeks that just six percent of movements made end up in a Steinhausen. Swiss automatic movement standards allow for an accuracy of +25/-27 seconds per day. Our Steinhausen watches rate +15/-13 seconds per day, making it more accurate. The Limited Edition Classic follows the tradition of displaying the day, date, month, year, and moon and stars depicting day and night. The sweeping second-hand movement, brushed and polished stainless steel, and ivory face with Roman numerals is included, too. Thirty-five jeweled stones inside aid movement and accuracy; and interchangeable brown and black leather wristbands will match whatever clothes you're wearing. It comes in a handsome felt-lined wood box, along with a card certifying its authenticity. Read more...

NEW! Combine the traditions and demanding standards of a Steinhausen and Swiss technology with a chronograph and get the latest innovation: The Steinhausen Swiss Design Watch. Measure time better with the Steinhausen Swiss Design Watch, the first in the Steinhausen line to include a chronograph. Chronographs have been around since 1822 and as part of wristwatches since 1933. Now, in addition to the craftsmanship, style and quality you have come to expect from a Steinhausen, we have added our own chronograph. The dial at 3 o'clock ticks off the 60 seconds in a minute. The dial at 6 o'clock lists the minutes, and the dial at 9 o'clock shows the hours, up to 10. Now you can time your exercise and rest intervals or check your heart rate. The Swiss Design Watch is the perfect watch to do this because, as an automatic watch, it keeps accurate time with the kinetic movement of your body. And with it encased in an award-winning design, you're sure to receive attention and compliments with the Swiss Design Watch. Plus, as with all Steinhausens, the Swiss Design Watch is handmade with Swiss parts and movement that is guaranteed for five years. The Swiss Design Watch also includes scratch-proof glass, flip-digit displays showing the day of week and date of month; and a safe chemical that brightly illuminates the watch hands. A Sapphire crystal has been included on the crown, and the Swiss Design Watch comes in a handsome box, along with a card certifying its authenticity. And as with all Steinhausen automatic watches, the Swiss Design Watch never needs batteries or winding. Until now, most of us couldn't afford a timepiece of such masterful style and quality. Be the first to wear this remarkable new addition to the world-famous Steinhausen line. Read more...
