Mondaine NEO Chronograph (41mm) White Dial / Black Grape Leather Strap

The inspiration for the brand was the “Official Swiss Railways Clock”. Created in 1944 by Hans Hilfiker, the clock quickly became a standout feature of all railway stations and eventually became a Swiss national icon. In 1986 Mondaine, founded by Erwin Bernheim, created its first timepiece with official licence from the Federal Swiss Railways. Since then, Mondaine has strived to preserve the classic, timeless look of the original design, while still aiming to implement contemporary technologies and innovative features to each new collection. From implementing new backlight technology to contactless payments and smartwatches, the brand has ensured each and every watch is quintessential Mondaine. 

Inspired by the classic panda look, the watches in the Neo Collection offer a reinterpretation by blending it seamlessly with the iconic Swiss Railways station design. With this new series of gentleman’s watches, Mondaine extends its popular chronograph collection. The Swiss brand believes ‘style should be an experience, not just an accessory’; these watches showcase that perfectly.

• Each model in the Neo Collection has chronograph features. 
• Introducing a new shape unique to this line, each model has a brushed stainless steel case.
• Each watch seamlessly blends the classic panda dial with the iconic Swiss Railways station design.
