In 1944, Swiss engineer, designer and employee at the Swiss Federal Railways Hans Hilfiker created a clock that came to be known as the "Official Swiss Railway Station Clock".

Since the launch of the collection in 1986, new lines have been introduced every year to ensure that Mondaine's Official SBB Station Clock appeals to a wide audience.

The Mondaine collection has become a recognized icon in its own right, offering pieces with a strong character in each edition. Today, for many, it is one of the "10 classic Swiss watch designs".

The Evo watch series features a gently rounded watch case, crowned by a slightly curved mineral glass with a magnifying effect. This elegant watch combines design with practicality.

The Swiss postage stamp with the Mondaine dial was created by Ursus Wehrli for Swiss Post.

Mondaine is listed in the encyclopedic edition of Phaedo listing 999 ultimate design classics. A 3-volume edition based on careful research and extensive consultation with designers and experts in the design world. Sir Terence Conran called this book "a remarkable publishing achievement. These 3 volumes are encyclopedic in scale and completeness; they are truly a two-dimensional design museum between cardboard covers. Every design office and design student will want them...”

The Mondaine watch is featured in the book Cult Watches.

What makes "Swiss made" so special? So sexy that it constantly causes a stir as the "Swiss" and not only in Switzerland? What is important is the seminal added value thanks to specific characteristics of the products and themes presented here, which elevates them above the triviality of superfluous products and throwaway (in)culture of built-in obsolescence. (...) In the land of ambitious inventors, qualities like these are not only lived out in the classic design industry, but also by Mr. and Mrs. Swiss in everyday life (...). - Klaus Leuschel

The two-second pause on all station clocks throughout Switzerland, a unique feature of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) clock that ensures the scheduled and absolutely precise departure of Swiss trains on the hour, has delighted and fascinated travelers for the past 70 years . This ingenious design by a Swiss engineer employed by SBB ensured that train punctuality became a visible concept all over the world. Swiss watchmaker Mondaine incorporated this unique movement into its latest release, the stop2go. This watch features the famous red second hand, which completes the revolution in 58 seconds and then pauses for 2 seconds at the 12 o'clock indicator while the black minute hand jumps forward, giving impetus for the next revolution.

Mondaine introduces a watch that proudly evokes its past while taking a bold step into its future. The Mondaine Helvetica No 1 Smart is the very first smartwatch. The watch is equipped with the latest smart technology aimed at activity and sleep monitoring and features movement tracking, sleep tracking, sleep monitoring, sleep cycle alarm, get-active notifications and customizable coaching function.

Mondaine BackLight technology allows the hands to be seen clearly at night without compromising the visual impact of the design. The thin Swiss-made luminous foil made of extra strong Superluminova material is attached to the back of the hands.

Two years after the launch of the first Mondaine watch-style smartwatch, in February 2015, the focus is once again on the basic Mondaine principles. The Mondaine Helvetica Regular Smartwatch convinces with timeless Swiss design paired with innovation, craftsmanship and functionality.

With the success of the launch of the first essence collection, Mondaine is expanding the range with a white housing. In addition to the sustainable case, the models also have an environmentally friendly bracelet with a cork lining. The special new strap system also allows for easy and uncomplicated replacement of the strap without tools.
