We are not equipped to offer adhoc personal customisation.

Recent undertakings include a bespoke watch for a tactical police unit and a US military regimental watch.

We do not sell replacement straps on our website currently. However, you may wish to contact your closest distributor with your enquiry, they may be able to help.

Stainless steel bracelets should always be adjusted by a competent watchmaker. However, if you experience difficulties with setting the length of your bracelet, we would advise to put it in boiling water for a few minutes as to loosen the screws. Screws on new bracelets are usually set with a little bit of varnish as to keep them solidly in place.

For all enquires regarding ongoing orders, your payment, refunds, and delivery times, please contact our logistics manager by email at service@ow-watch.ch

Our watches are all hand-assembled in the Swiss Jura by expert watchmakers. We pride ourselves in using high-quality movements and watch parts, and sourcing as much as possible from the Swiss industry to achieve more than 90% of Swiss made on all of our models.

Ollech & Wajs Zürich was founded by Joseph Ollech and Albert Wajs in 1956 in Zürich, Switzerland. Joseph Ollech, a trained watchmaker, and Albert Wajs, the entrepreneur, partnered to open a watch shop. They first distributed the Breitling and Omega brands, before launching their own brand: OWZ Ollech & Wajs Zürich.

Therefor, Being Swiss Made means also that we work with natural products and high-quality materials with a minimal impact on the environment. We Favour timeless designs as to create intemporel watches that will last a lifetime.
