The history of the Swatch watch already fills kilometres of library shelves, and the fascination it exerts is making further entries in the annals of Swiss watchmaking.
In the 1970s, the Swiss watch industry was in a debacle and experienced the worst crisis it had ever known. In 1979, the Swiss watchmakers achieved a success: they launched the world's finest wristwatch, the "Delirium Tremens", which had a limited number of components. The revolution in the Swiss watch industry and its subsequent renaissance led to the Swatch launched by Nicolas G. Hayek in 1983, a watch with a plastic case with only 51 components - instead of the usual 91 or more - and high quality at a very favourable price. The Swatch spreads its vitality around the globe in no time at all.
Numerous watch developments complement the standard watch. Top technological achievements are realised, such as the world's flattest plastic watch, the Swatch Skin or the standardised Internet Time reference time. In addition to the traditional plastic Swatch, the brand launches developments such as the Irony (the Metal Swatch) or the so-called Swatch Specials, watches for special occasions such as Christmas, Mother's Day or Valentine's Day. The exceptional quality features of Swatch and the technical progress in science and technology in sports timekeeping and data processing are repeatedly demonstrated at international events and fun sports competitions such as beach volleyball and snowboarding.
We are an authorised specialist and online retailer of the Swatch brand, which has decisive advantages for you as a customer in terms of security, warranty and after-sales service when purchasing online.
- Great deal

Just receive it as a gift and couldn’t be happier, highly recommended!
As well Christian highly recommended! (Posted on 20.11.2022) - A must-have in your “Swiss Made” watch collection (Translated automatically with Google™ View original text)
- I was looking to explore the world of entry-level Swiss automatic watches. I wanted to know what the top of this range could offer. In this price range, if you want an automatic Swiss watch, you don't have many choices other than the SISTEM51 from Swatch. Then you very quickly arrive at models from Tissot for example which is a brand located in the range above. I was looking for a model with a classic and elegant design but the model I was interested in was no longer available on the official Swatch online store. It was therefore quite natural that I turned to the CHRISTIAN Uhren Schmuck site. I was afraid that the watch would no longer be available from Swatch but CHRISTIAN Uhren Schmuck were able to order it from them easily and it arrived on time. I was pleasantly surprised by the professionalism of this website and their ability to obtain a watch model that even the supplier no longer offers in its official online store. Which proves that CHRISTIAN Uhren Schmuck have a leading place in the sale of watches in Switzerland. If you are looking for a site to buy a watch, I recommend uhrenschmuck24.ch 100%. Despite its price, this watch is no less a technological feat, both through the originality of its mechanics which consists of only 51 parts and through its manufacture on a 100% automated production line. This watch is, in my opinion, a must-have to have in your collection of "Swiss Made" watches, not because of its price or its luxury, but because of its unique and innovative aspect both from a technological point of view and from a design point of view. the history of Swiss watchmaking innovation. A little advice however, especially if you want to buy an entry-level watch like this one. If you're looking for a "premium" look and are willing to spend 250 CHF, you might be better off spending 200 CHF more on a mid-range watch with better finishes. The SISTEM51 YIG400 has overall good quality materials such as its black leather strap or its rose gold colored PVD stainless steel case which gives it a very neat appearance but is fitted with a plastic glass which gives it a takes away some of its superb feel. I was also able to notice through the window which overlooks the movement of the watch, that a grain of dust had managed to enter during its manufacture despite a 100% automated design by machines. Almost imperceptible details but which remind you of the price range you have chosen. I'm already looking forward to buying my next watch and I already know that this time I will opt for a slightly more expensive mid-range watch from Tissot or high-end from Aerowatch. In any case, as I said, the SISTEM51 is a "must have" in your collection if you are passionate about Swiss watches. (Posted on 18.08.2023)

Questions about warranty
How long is my warranty?
You will find details of the item's warranty on the relevant product page under additional information. We provide the official international manufacturer's warranty for branded watches and branded jewellery. This is at least 24 months. Individual brands or products sometimes have a significantly longer warranty. CHRISTIAN brand jewellery is guaranteed for 24 months.
What does the warranty cover?
A watch's warranty generally covers manufacturing and material defects, including the movement, hands, dial, crown and sometimes the case. However, it does not cover damage resulting from incorrect use, lack of care (see our maintenance tips), accidents or normal wear and tear (e.g. straps, batteries, etc.).
