Historic Jump Hour Manufacturer Niton Makes a Resounding Comeback with a Fusion of Vintage and Contemporary Style in the 'Prima'

Niton, the respected watchmaker with a rich history dating back to 1919, is poised to make an extraordinary comeback. The illustrious watch brand, renowned for its ultra-thin watches, shaped movements, and artistic creations rose to fame in the 1920s and 1930s when its innovative mechanisms were utilised by esteemed jewellers such as Patek Philippe, Cartier, Chopard, Gübelin, and Van Cleef & Arpels. However, like many brands of the era, Niton faced financial turbulence and was eventually integrated into the Sarcar S.A. brand, leading to a hiatus in its production.

Now, Niton is all set to make waves in the watchmaking world once again under the able leadership of Leopoldo Celi and Yvan Ketterer. The ‘Prima’ is their first release on this exciting new journey, merging vintage charm with modern panache to create a timepiece that stands as an ode to Niton’s legacy and a herald of its future.

With the release of the ‘Prima’, Niton once again claims its place in horological history, not merely as a footnote, but as a living testament to the beauty of timeless design, mechanical ingenuity, and the enduring allure of fine watchmaking.
