Obtaining a long running capacity for watches was the goal of several watch-makers. It was through this challenge, which they conquered, that Hebdomas started its production in La Chaux-de-Fonds (Switzerland). The craftmanship of the Swiss watch-makers in La Chaux-de-Fonds is world renowned; this small village situated near to the French border, is also the birth-place of many famous Swiss brands. The work of these watch-maker has been re-discovered by a large public and connoisseurs who appreciate the good craftsmanship and models that time has preserved. Since 1888, all Hebdomas watches have been entirely manufactured by hand, piece by piece. The Hebdomas high standard of quality is rooted in the experience of its highly skilled watch-maker and also in the remembrance of ancient customs linked to the ‘’cycle of seven’’, which is the key number that made it famous throughout the world. The name Hebdomas recalls the festivities of Ebdomee, held in Sparta, Croton and Mileto, which celebrated the birth of Apollo on the seventh day of the month. Sung by poets in ancient Lesbos , such festivities were dedicated to Dionisio, holding many superstitious rituals and beliefs which were linked to the seventh day of the month. A century of tradition helped spread Hebdomas’ reputation and appreciation throughout the world. These famous time-pieces have been awarded sever al gold medals and distinctions.
