This month, Victorinox celebrated its partnership with The Glass House–Philip Johnson’s iconic, modernist architectural masterpiece in New Canaan, Connecticut.

The setting was the perfect backdrop to showcase Victorinox’s newest timepieces from the Journey 1884 collection, which could also be seen on the wrists of notable friends of the brand, including Scott Drevnig, Deputy Director of The Glass House, as well as on Luke Ditella, Eric Rutherford and Max Twitty.

A sophisticated automatic version of the watch takes inspiration from urban adventures. It features a prominent highly tridimensional architectural dial paired with an elegant ceramic bezel that makes it a natural fit with the clean, modern lines of The Glass House.

All Journey 1884 timepieces feature an innovative attachment system that enables easy changing of the straps or bracelet, allowing for the ultimate in personalization.  For The Glass House Summer Party, Victorinox also showcased a new assortment of colorful paracord straps crafted from the same ultra-strong nylon cord used for parachutes. These are in addition to colorful rubber strap options, as well as leather and even one crafted from wood.  Victorinox is proud to say that the Journey 1884 collection of timepieces are designed, developed, tested, and manufactured at its workshop in Delémont, Switzerland, and comes with a 5-year warranty.

The Journey 1884 collection by Victorinox is priced from $650 to $1050.
