About Antique and Vintage Wittnauer Wristwatches

Albert Wittnauer came to America from Switzerland in 1872, already a watch maker by the age of 16. In 1880, his family started an importing business, which was given to him and renamed 'A. Wittnauer Company.' Wittnauer's great success came in 1904 when he gave watches to the military for early aviation tests. Wittnauer watches saw great success during WWI, and his products were used for a number of famous flights, such as the transatlantic flight by Amelia Earhart.

The Wittnauer All-Proof, which was shock and water proof, became the preferred watch of soldiers during WW2. The company was purchased by Westinghouse in 1969, and still produces elegant higher-end watches today.
