ELKA X SERIES
The ELKA X Series is inspired by a flight instrument created by Heuer for the defunct Elka Watch. The watch case is the same as for the ELKA D Series, whose shape is taken from that of a pocket watch. 2 models, but 2 different characters. The Elka X Serie is the sporty version, equipped with cut-edge rough leather straps or Nato straps.  5 dials, a black one with numbers and hands equipped with Superluminova that looks like burnt tritium, another version with a dark blue dial and white Superluminova and a beige version that remains the color of a pocket watch made by the former brand - and 2 other models in khaki green and another in a colour gradient from beige to black.

ELKA D SERIES
The D Series is rooted in watchmaking history, when pocket watches were common.The watch case is the same as the one used for the ELKA X Series, whose shape is taken from the shape of a pocket watch. The aim of this design is to have an organic object in hand, something like a pebble, something we want to touch, to feel.

LIMITED EDITIONS
Elka Watch has collaborated with Ace Jewelers and Heroes Media to design and produce watches in limited editions of 25 pieces. The idea behind collaboration is to fuse the DNA of the two entities, while maintaining the brand's guiding principle, which could be translated into models with minimalist designs that can stand the test of time without ageing, a watch that can be worn today, in 20 years time, as it could have been worn 50 years ago!

ARINIS
Arinis stays true to the codes of the young brand and takes the form of a stylish diver's watch. This watch boasts the same dimensions, chevé-box sapphire crystal, lugs shape, and emblematic side edge line as the original series. The watch is adorned with a ceramic ring bezel and superluminova numerals, and is water-resistant to 20 bar (200m).
The watch is named after the ancient name of the village of Saint-Blaise, which dates back to the first millennium. This name was chosen for many reasons: the village's location on the shores of Switzerland's Lake Neuchâtel and the region's rich history, which includes the Celts and the Palafittes civilizations. These ancient people built dwellings on the lake's poles to allow for fluctuating water levels. The watch's design is inspired by the region's history, with elements that recall the Celtic wheel found in the lake, the stock of ceramics found at Chemin du Diable in Saint-Blaise, and the lake itself. These elements are reflected in the watch's shape, material used such as the bezel in ceramic.

Nato Strap

Many people believe that the NATO bracelet is named after the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO). Therefore, the common story is that the watch was worn by NATO forces, but this is not technically the case.In reality, the name is short for NATO Stocking Number, a term that simply refers to the fact that the bracelet could be purchased in the NATO supply shop.The original NATO bracelet was born in 1973 in response to the British Ministry of Defence's need to provide a highly durable watch strap for the British Army. The MoD's objective was to design a watchband resistant under all conditions. The aim was to overcome the problems encountered with the bracelets of the time: Problems of moisture on the leather in tropical climates, the risk of reflection of the steel bracelet during a military mission, the poor reliability of rubber bracelets, as well as the risk of losing the watch due to the breakage of the spring bars (including those in the buckle).They were only available in the colour admiral grey and were all 20 millimetres wide. The bracelets were made of nylon.

Milanese Mesh

The Milanese bracelet is also known as Milanese mesh bracelet as it is made of intertwined loops (fine mesh). It is available in a thin and robust version to give the watch an elegant or solid appearance. It fits well on any wrist. This type of bracelet was made by hand as early as the 13th century. In the 1920s, the process was revived by German manufacturers, which led it to a new wave of popularity. Milanese bracelets are visually distinguished by their dense, close-knit construction formed from steel springs which give them a smooth, fine surface. Milanese bracelets are extremely comfortable to wear and allow the skin to breathe easily.

Tropic Rubber Strap

A touch of modernity in a classic design The Elka Arinis Tropic Rubber Strap is an ode to the golden age of diving watches in the 1960s. Combining functionality and sophistication, this hi-tec genuine rubber strap pays homage to the Tropic straps of the past with a tapered tail, two loops and a textured pattern true to the era. Despite its vintage look, this is a thoroughly modern bracelet, with easy spring bars and exceptional durability. The Elka Arinis Vintage Tropic bracelet's small perforations are carefully designed to allow air and water to circulate, offering the wearer great comfort in hot climates. Key features : Genuine rubber, Made in Switzerland, Black or Blue colour, Size 20/18 mm, Highly resistant to the elements and temperature.
