THE NEW VICTORINOX JOURNEY 1884 IS NOT JUST A WATCH.

It’s the first leg of a new journey for Victorinox watches and a statement infusing the feeling of freedom and the energy of the Swiss mountains into everyday adventures. Let this journey begin!

Imagine hiking on a spectacular ridge in the Swiss alps, following the path, lost in thoughts, enjoying the calmness and the breathtaking views whilst deeply inhaling the fresh mountain air. This is the inspiration behind the Victorinox Journey 1884, the new companion that can be relied upon for hiking adventures and much more.

The watch pays tribute to its inspiration with a hand design replicating the Swiss hiking signs, a dial featuring the rough texture of a natural hiking path and a practical and sporty rubber strap. The case features strong shapes and curves and the notch at 6 o’clock on the bezel looks as if it has been carved out by a sharp pocketknife. The industrial roots of the brand are reflected in the finish of the case, in the engraved material code, and the founding year 1884 is proudly presented on the bezel.

ISO-certified for shock and water resistance, each watch gives the owner maximum freedom during any activity, whether they are wearing the more sporty quartz or the more sophisticated automatic version. The latter takes its inspiration from urban adventures and city travel. It offers a prominent highly tri-dimensional architectural dial paired with an elegant ceramic bezel echoing modern city skylines.

And because even urban explorers long for the real outdoors, the automatic version features the colour yellow as seen on Swiss hiking signs and the rough-textured centre part of the dial as a nod to the collection’s hiking roots.

The Journey 1884 is Swiss made and features 43mm recycled stainless steel case (black PVD on selected model), manufactured in Delémont, Switzerland. It’s scratch-resistant and has antireflective sapphire crystal, is water-resistant to 200m and has a uni-directional rotating bezel with inlay in aluminium on quartz models and ceramic on automatic models.
