ELOGA HISTORY
ELOGA SWISS WATCH MAKER SINCE 1928 |
Eloga : meeting every challenge
It was in 1917 that Fritz and Hans Spahr opened their watchmaking-shop in Lengnau,
in the canton of Berne. Launching a business then needed a strog dose of confidence
in the future.
During this epoch-making period of history, the Swiss watchmaking industry continued
tu progress both qualitatively and quantitatively. The timepieces produced by
the Spahr brothers under the brand name Eloga slowly but surely gained in prestige
and importance.
Like all watch manufacturers during the first quarter of this century, the Spahrs
experienced the difficult years of the 1920 – 23 world-wide crisis and of
restructuration in the watch industry, punctuated by periods of recovery. Later,
they had to survive the Great Depression. Spahr
Junior : a wind of change
When Fritz Spahr retired, his son Fritz Junior had the onerous task of taking
over the company’s sales operations. Supported by his uncle, he displayed
the necessary courage, perseverance and commitment to overcome every economic
obstacle put in Eloga’s path and to continue the harmonious development
of the company. |
