STOWA - German watch
Germany Watches, for men, Aviator wacthes
STOWA is a German watch manufacturer based in Engelsbrand, Germany. STOWA is currently owned by Jörg Schauer, who also owns the Schauer watch brand and the DUROWE watch
movement brand.
In 1927, Walter Storz founded STOWA by establishing his own brand that was manufactured at his father's watch factory in Hornberg, Germany. The name he chose for his new company was based upon his name: STO being the first three letters of his surname and WA being the first two letters of his first name.
At present, STOWA has five model lines:
* Antea - a replica of an original STOWA design from the 1930s
* Airman (Flieger) - a homage to the original B-Uhr
* Marine - a watch based on the marine chronometers used in navigation
* Prodiver - a diving watch water resistant to 1000m
* Seatime - a sports watch water resistant to 300m
The movements in STOWA's watches are mostly ETA movements with significant decoration and, in the case of the Airman Original, mechanical modifications. Since Jörg Schauer owns the Durowe (Deutsche Uhrenrohwerke) movement brand, it is anticipated that Durowe movements will be used in STOWA watches in the future.
