The Team
Behind Jenni Uhren is a dedicated team with many years of experience in watchmaking and the watch trade. Expertise, precision and a deep understanding of fine timepieces shape the daily work.
Four out of five team members are trained watchmakers – a level of specialisation that has become rare in a watch store today. This high level of expertise allows for sound advice and a precise assessment of every watch.
Close collaboration within the team and a shared passion for watchmaking form the foundation of trust, continuity and quality.
Our Workshop
The workshop forms the heart of the watchmaking process – a place where experience, precision and craftsmanship come together. Modern equipment ensures a professional execution of all work.
Each timepiece is individually inspected, dismantled, cleaned and precisely adjusted. The aim of every overhaul is reliable performance and long-term value preservation.
Service and repair work is carried out exclusively on watches whose movements are manufactured in Switzerland.
Your Watch Store
At Selnaustrasse in the Selnau district of Zurich, a traditional watch store presents a carefully curated selection of high-quality timepieces.
Alongside current models, the collection also includes vintage and (P)Re-Loved watches that meet the highest standards. Personal advice allows for a considered and individual choice.
For a personal meeting or individual consultation, we are pleased to assist you – in person or through direct contact.
