PRIM SVATOVÁCLAVSKÉ 40 Q

The PRIM Svatováclavské is a classic dress watch from the popular Linea model series and features an unconventional dial design. The watch commemorates the legacy of St. Wenceslas - an important historical figure and patron saint of the Czech lands. The indices in Roman numerals stand out on the elegant dial. A discreet Latin inscription glorifies this most famous Czech saint: “Sanctus Venceslaus, Dux Bohemiae, Dei Gratia”, or “Saint Wenceslas, by God's grace the Prince of Bohemia”.

The printed dial, typically produced only in silver, bears the simple PRIM logo, which has been used to mark watches from Nové Město nad Metují since 1969. It is interesting that this logo was also created by the designer Josef Žid because ELTON started producing women's watches at that time. The original, so-called “loaf” logo was unsatisfactory due to its complexity, since it was difficult to read on the smaller dials of women's watches. The second reason was that even the designers in socialist Czechoslovakia, who were in charge not only of the technical side, but also of the look of the watch, followed world trends. At that time, traditional brands mostly used minimalist and clean logo designs.

The watch is equipped with a high-quality Swiss quartz movement.
