Ebel was founded in 1911 by Eugène Blum and Alice Lévy in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. The name Ebel is derived from the initials of the founders’ names: Eugène Blum et Lévy. Ebel quickly gained recognition for blending precision with elegant design, with Alice overseeing the aesthetics and Eugène focusing on the technical side. Over the decades, Ebel has become known for producing high-quality wristwatches and even supplied timepieces for other luxury brands, including Cartier.
Ebel has always placed great emphasis on design and aesthetics. In the 1970s, under the leadership of Pierre-Alain Blum, Ebel became renowned for collaborations with famous architects like Le Corbusier and Andree Putman. This focus on artistry earned the brand its moniker, “Architects of Time.” One of their most iconic designs is the Ebel 1911, introduced in 1986, which reflects their enduring commitment to blending form and function.
In 2003, Ebel was acquired by the Movado Group, helping the brand maintain its presence in the competitive luxury watch market. Today, Ebel continues to innovate, offering contemporary designs while maintaining the elegant craftsmanship that has defined the brand for over a century.
Whether it’s the elegant simplicity of the Wave collection or the timeless refinement of the 1911, Ebel watches cater to various styles and occasions. Each timepiece is crafted with precision and luxury in mind. Discover the full collection at Timedriven to explore the world of Ebel. Visit Timedriven for more details.
