EBEL 1911 – Facets of modern elegance
EBEL | Hall A1 Stand 208
At INHORGENTA 2026, EBEL presents the 1911 collection in two expressive interpretations: as a striking chronograph in Ice Blue and as an elegant version with a warm brown dial.
Both models impressively demonstrate how EBEL combines sporty functionality with aesthetic clarity. The 1911 line remains true to its iconic DNA while simultaneously reinterpreting it in a contemporary way – for different style worlds, but with a common attitude.
EBEL 1911 Chronograph Ice Blue
With the EBEL 1911 Chronograph Ice Blue, the brand presents a powerful reinterpretation of modern luxury. The luminous ice-blue dial, combined with warm brown-rimmed subdials, creates a captivating contrast of vibrancy and depth. The sunburst finish reflects light with every movement and underscores the meticulous craftsmanship.
The 44-millimeter stainless steel case, with its characteristic hexagonal silhouette and polished bezel screws, echoes the classic design language of the collection. Inside, a Swiss automatic movement ensures reliable timekeeping, while the sapphire crystal case back offers a view of the finely crafted movement. Super-LumiNova® accents on the hands and indices combine functionality with clean aesthetics.
The chronograph is available with either a brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet or a black, perforated leather strap. This makes the model equally suitable for dynamic everyday wear and stylish evening occasions – an icon with a sporty character, reinterpreted for the modern man.
EBEL 1911 with new brown dial
In addition to the sporty chronograph version, EBEL presents a new, elegant version of the 1911 collection. The galvanic brown dial with warm reflections lends the model a subtle depth and underscores the timeless appeal of the line.
The 34-millimeter case, water-resistant to 10 bar and crafted from stainless steel and 18-karat yellow gold, harmoniously frames the dial. Gold-tone details and the signature "Kissing E" symbol at 12 o'clock, integrated into curved Arabic numerals, define its elegant appearance. Subtle accents of white Super-LumiNova ensure excellent legibility, while a date window at 6 o'clock and a delicate minute track complete the dial's balanced design.
Inside, a precise Swiss-made quartz movement keeps perfect time. The watch comes with two interchangeable straps: an iconic two-tone strap and a supple brown leather strap, which also features the "Kissing E" motif. This allows the watch's character to be flexibly varied – from classic and elegant to a modern interpretation.
Swiss watchmaking with a history
EBEL was founded in 1911 in La Chaux-de-Fonds – the historic center of Swiss watchmaking. From the very beginning, founders Eugène Blum and Alice Lévy combined technical precision with aesthetic sensitivity – values that remain the foundation of the brand to this day.
EBEL gained international renown, among other things, for the iconic wave-shaped bracelet of its Sport Classic collection, which uniquely combines function and beauty. Today, the brand stands for sporty-elegant Swiss-made watches with a clear identity and timeless appeal.
The current models of the EBEL 1911 collection are on the INHORGENTA 2026 in Hall A1, Stand 208 to discover.
