When people think of precise work and excellence, they would often imagine a Swiss watch. The centuries-old tradition of helvetian watchmaking has made Swiss Madeproducts synonymous with the highest quality. Born from this tradition, Appella brand embodies the spirit of the craft and is proud to carry the Swiss made mark.

The roots of Appella can be traced back the first half of 20th century, when a Swiss watchmaker Paul Glocker was making his first steps in running Ebossa Group. He was not only a skilled craftsman, but also a successful businessman, when in 1943 he founded Appella.

Appella's Quality

Paul Glocker, the founding father of Appella, drew his success from manufacturing Roskopf watch mechanisms in his Ebossa factory that were considered a cutting-edge product of Swiss craftsmanship at that time. Inspired by the revolutionary mechanical design and production process, Paul Glocker made sure that Appella's vision featured the same qualities of excellence.
