ELKA Watch Co. of 2022 has no connection with the defunct Amsterdam brand. We just wanted to pay a tribute to the old Dutch brand with our first 2 models.
About the Defunct brand:
Founded in 1877 in Amsterdam by Eliazer Kiek, inventor of the tactile watch for the blind and watchmaker to Queen Juliana of the Netherlands. In 1949, the Elka Watch opened its Swiss branch in La Chaux-de-Fonds (it produced wristwatches of course but also pocket watches, braille watches, chronographs, chess and signal clocks). Then, in the mid-1970s, the brand disappeared along with Ernst Louis Kiek, grandson and last heir.
I probably have a lot of watches...probably...I worked for 25 years in the watch industry as a product manager for brands such as Hamilton, Swatch, Rado, Timberland...I like watches and I also have other brands...
Yesterday I wore them all depending on my mood, depending on the shirts or shoes I was wearing. That's how you should wear them, it's too restrictive to make lists, it takes away the spontaneity! and even if you have to wear the same watch for 2 weeks! or more!! you may have your favorite! no?
Today I only wear one brand! ELKA Watches, they are always in accordance with my mood and my desires -
