The brand Ollech & Wajs was created in 1956 by Joseph Ollech and Albert Wajs in Zurich, Switzerland. Albert was responsible for the design, engineering and manufacturing of the watches, while Joseph handled marketing and retail sales. Before creating their own watches under the brand Ollech & Wajs, they started their business in 1954 making steel bracelets for other brands.
The brand is known for distributing watches to units of the American army during the Vietnam War and for having earned its reputation among divers and pilots around the world.
After 12 years of negotiations and after having been its distributor for the French market, in 2017, Charles Le Menestrel, a watchmaking enthusiast, bought the brand. The current range includes models like the Ollech & Wajs P-101 and the Ollech & Wajs P-104, the Ollech & Wajs C-1000, the Ollech & Wajs Ocean Graph and the Ollech & Wajs Navichron.
The prices of Ollech & Wajs watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between CHF 1,500 and CHF 2,000 depending on the models and finishes. Expect to pay CHF 1,456 for an Ollech & Wajs 350CI and close to CHF 2,300 for an Ollech & Wajs Navichron Chronograph. The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at to buy a cheaper Ollech & Wajs. Vintage models including the Ollech & Wajs Navichron and Ollech & Wajs Astrochron, are very popular with collectors and they should find out about the seller before taking the step of purchasing a vintage one.
Ollech & Wajs is an independent watch brand and produces several hundred watches per year, all models combined. To choose an Ollech & Wajs that best suits you, Dialicious owners' reviews are a valuable resource for evaluating each of the different models through real owner experience.
