Ventura is one of the
contemporary design leaders in the watch industry today. Several of Ventura's designs
are already recognized as classics
of modern product design.
Hannes Wettstein's V-Matic chronometer collection has
prestiguous awards including
the title of "Best of Best" 1995 from the Essen Design
Center in Nordrhein-Westfalen; the 1995 prize from
the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and
a commendation in the Durability 97/98 competition
from the Design Center in Stuttgart.
For Ventura, functionality in design and watch-making
competence are inseparable. As one of the top ten
manufacturers of officially tested chronometers
worldwide, they are committed to excellence.
A Ventura exclusive: The world's only watches made of
hardened titanium. While ordinary titanium watches can scratch,
Only Ventura V-Matic titanium chronometers are hardened
to 1200 HV, equivalent to the hardness of sapphire (corundum) second onto to Diamond on the Mohs hardness scale.
