That\u2019s 117 years of accumulating the finest Swiss \u2018know-how\u2019 &#8211; the kind of knowledge you can only derive through experience. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Founded in La-Chaux-de-Fonds by husband and wife duo, Paul Schwarz and Olga Etienne, the company remained in family hands for much of its history. Recently, though, in 2007, the company was purchased by Rafaello Raddachi, a local businessman with a passionate interest in horology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32014 size-full\" title=\"Schwarz Etienne\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-2.jpeg\" alt=\"Schwarz Etienne\" width=\"518\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-2.jpeg 518w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-2-222x300.jpeg 222w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-2-281x380.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the early days, Schwarz Etienne created movements for some pretty major labels, such as Chanel and Dunhill. It wasn\u2019t until the mid-eighties, having survived and thrived through the Quartz Crisis thanks to a willingness to diversify, that the brand finally started producing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/luxury-watches\/\">luxury watches<\/a> under its own name. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The brand quickly gained a reputation for avant-garde designs, executed to an exacting standard. With so many years of caliber creation behind them, it seemed like a natural step. But rather than restrict the supply of their in-house movements to potential rivals, Schwarz Etienne did the opposite.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32017 size-full\" title=\"Schwarz Etienne\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3.jpeg\" alt=\"Schwarz Etienne\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3-250x250.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3-140x140.jpeg 140w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-3-380x380.jpeg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, in 2019, Schwarz Etienne is one of the most accessible suppliers of high-end movements that go well beyond the call of duty in terms of specifications and aesthetics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schwarz Etienne offers four categories of calibers, with a total of ten standard configurations. The extent of modification available to independents looking to use Schwarz Etienne as a supplier varies on complexity and minimum order quantities, but even the base examples are well above the standard that one would expect from such an approachable enterprise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32020 size-full\" title=\"Schwarz Etienne\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Schwarz Etienne\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1-250x250.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1-140x140.jpeg 140w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-4-1-380x380.jpeg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Impressive at Every Level<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the \u2018entry-level\u2019 calibre from Schwarz Etienne is a beauty to behold.

ISE stands for \u2018Irreversible Schwarz Etienne\u2019, which, somewhat confusingly, denotes that the movement has, in fact, been reversed.

While Schwarz Etienne\u2019s output is considerably more expensive than something like Sellita, ETA, or Soprod, the level of difference you get from this independent (in every sense of the word) maker in comparison to the base-level copy-cats that power the majority of attainable timepieces is preposterous. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32050 size-full\" title=\"Schwarz Etienne\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11.jpeg\" alt=\"Schwarz Etienne\" width=\"401\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11.jpeg 401w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11-250x250.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11-140x140.jpeg 140w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-11-381x380.jpeg 381w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And although we\u2019re talking about watches that run several thousand dollars, what it means is that new, dynamic, independent designers have access to a partner that will embellish rather than simply enable their genius.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schwarz Etienne have shown their willingness to take chances on boundary-stretching designs with their own label. Although mostly enlivened by vibrant color choices, the Roswell range in particular has an organic chaos to its display that is truly unusual. Perhaps it does not scream \u2018luxury\u2019 in the way its movement deserves, but it certainly screams innovation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32056 size-full\" title=\"Schwarz Etienne\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-12.jpeg\" alt=\"Schwarz Etienne\" width=\"518\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-12.jpeg 518w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-12-222x300.jpeg 222w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Image-12-281x380.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s what the industry needs above all else. Creative companies and individuals that are able to leap over the walls that once stood high between them, and collaborate on funky, fresh ideas that will infuse a new generation with, above all else, enthusiasm for a craft that too often seems to operate behind closed doors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schwarz Etienne is a company from the past, helping to guide the industry into the future. Whatever its role may be in it, it is clear to be that Schwarz Etienne is one of those companies who will lead us there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>All images courtesy of Schwarz Etienne<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may not have heard of Schwarz Etienne, but they like you.
