ASKANIA is a German watch brand based in Berlin.

In 1871, Carl Bamberg – the son of a horologist and a pupil of Carl Zeiss – established a factory in Berlin, producing pioneering precision instruments for seafaring, observatories, research and expeditions. Thanks to a high level of innovation and reliable technology, ASKANIA became one of the most important German companies for aviation instruments.

In the early days of aviation, hardly a single aircraft was not equipped with ASKANIA onboard instruments, which proved to be reliable in every situation and at any time, day or night. The onboard and pilot watches helped the pioneers of aviation to achieve their record flights and safely bring the first civilian passengers to their destinations.

It was the age of men in their flying crates, commercial flights a distant dream and aircraft instruments were a rarity. ASKANIA recognised very early on the importance of technical support to a safe and reliable flight, and spotted the potential for the company. So it was that at the beginning of the 20th century, ASKANIA began to develop key navigational aids.

Innovation and precision were vital if the manufacturer was to achieve a competitive edge. This uncompromising focus on quality paid off, as by the 1930s and 1940s, hardly an airplane left the ground without ASKANIA instruments.

In 2006 the brand was relaunched by Leonhard R. Müller, re-discoverer, visionary and the spiritual great-grandson of Carl Bamberg. For the maxim remains the same: precision, innovation and fascination made in Berlin, Germany.

Fully maintaining tradition, today’s production of ASKANIA timekeepers perfectly embody the past values that have been responsible for its legendary success.
