ARINIS
Inspired by the rich history of Lake Neuchâtel, the "Arinis" is a stylish diver's watch that adheres to the brand's established design, including its dimensions, chevé-box sapphire crystal, lug shape, and signature side edge. Featuring a ceramic bezel, Super-LumiNova numerals, and 200m water resistance, it is named after "Arinis," the ancient first-millennium name of Saint-Blaise. This name reflects the village's lakeside location and the region's historical significance, from Celtic to Palafitte cultures. The watch's design incorporates elements like the ceramic bezel and overall shape, drawing from the Celtic wheel found in the lake and ceramics from Saint-Blaise. The arrow-shaped minute hand is a direct reference to tools used by the lake's early inhabitants.
LIMITED EDITIONS
25 PIECES ONLY
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!
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.
Features
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.

The art of choosing a Watch
Read MoreElka Watches: Where Form Follows Feeling The Bauhaus movement, with its iconic "form follows function," championed practical, unornamented design. While Elka Watches values legibility and clarity – key to functional design – our approach goes deeper: form also follows feeling. Inspired by the comforting presence of a pebble, Elka's design transcends mere utility. Smooth contours and ergonomic shapes, reminiscent of cherished pocket watches, invite interaction. These timepieces are meant to be experienced, a tactile connection to the past reimagined for today. This heritage doesn't mean ostentation. Across collections like the aviation-inspired X Series, the classic X Series, the pure S Series, and the diving Arinis, Elka dials prioritize clear legibility, echoing 1960s functionality. This uncluttered aesthetic focuses on accurate timekeeping with quiet confidence. Yet, the "pebble" inspiration subtly shapes the overall form. Rounded cases, gentle lugs, and wrist comfort create an organic harmony, moving beyond purely geometric designs. This tactile consideration enhances functionality, making wearing an Elka a truly pleasurable experience. Therefore, while respecting Bauhaus principles, Elka's inspiration extends to the "form follows feeling" of a smooth, comforting pebble. We create timepieces that are not just practical but also possess an inherent warmth and tactile appeal, forging a deeper connection with the wearer – a harmonious blend of function and feeling, a joy to use and a pleasure to own.

Elka Watch : Maintenance & Services
Maintenance
Please note that as with any micromechanical precision instrument, ELKA watches require regular maintenance. This keeps your watch in perfect working order and makes it last longer. The frequency with which this maintenance work needs to be carried out depends on the model, as well as climatic conditions and the owner’s care of the watch.
Therefore we cannot give a specific time interval for servicing. We generally recommend that a complete maintenance service should be carried out every 3 to 5 years.
To ensure that the service is carried out professionally, kindly take your watch to a professional service Center.
Water resistance During the final check,
ELKA watches are checked for water-resistance – ELKA D, S and X series are Water Resistant up to 5 bar, Arinis 20 Bar but the water-resistance of a watch is not permanent.
The water resistance of a watch can be impaired by the natural aging process of the gaskets (case back gasket, crown gasket, crystal gasket etc.) or accidental knocks to the watch case. Additionally, external influences like perspiration, chlorine- or saltwater, ultraviolet rays and cosmetic products can compromise the sealing over time. Therefore, always rinse your watch with clear water, when it comes in contact with chlorine- or saltwater. Basic advice for safeguarding the water resistance of your watch: The water resistance should be checked once a year by a professional watch maker.
Please ensure that the crown is pressed back into position 0 so that water cannot get into the mechanism.
Do not use crown under water.
Leather Straps
Please note that leather is a natural material subject to natural ageing. Depending on your wearing habit, the strap should be replaced regularly for reasons of safety (security of the watch on your wrist), as well as aesthetic and hygiene reasons. In normal, daily wearing conditions it has an average life of six to twelve months. To keep your leather strap in good condition for as long as possible, ELKA recommends the following:
• Protect your leather strap from heavy and long exposure to sunlight to prevent discoloration.
• Leather is permeable, contact with oily substances and cosmetics can damage it.
• To prevent deformation and fading of color, avoid contact with any kind of water.
• Clean your leather strap with a soft dry cloth, chemical substances can damage it. Bathing in the sea and swimming pools Always rinse your watch with clear water after use in, or contact with salt or chlorine water.
Cleaning All ELKA watches can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth periodically. Water resistant watch cases, bracelets and rubber straps can be cleaned by using a small brush (e.g. a toothbrush) and soapy water. Rinse it with clear water afterwards and use a soft cloth to dry it. Chemical products Direct contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetic products etc. can damage your strap/bracelet and case. Further, such chemical liquids impair the function of the gaskets affecting the water resistance of your watch.
Magnetic Fields
Whenever possible keep your watch away from magnetic fields like speakers, electric devices, security gates at airports or other electromagnetic appliances.
Such devices produce strong magnetic fields that may affect the functions of your watch, influence the accuracy of time keeping or even completely stop it.
Temperatures
