Story & Heritage Founded in Switzerland in 1902, Festina has a long tradition in European watchmaking, combining Swiss horological heritage with accessible elegance, reliability and distinctive design. During the 1960s and 1970s, watchmaking experienced an important aesthetic transformation. Traditional round cases gradually gave way to bold geometric shapes, integrated bracelets and colourful sunburst dials, reflecting the modern design language of the era. This Festina Ultra Thin represents that fascinating period through its cushion-shaped stainless steel case, striking green dial and elegant proportions. Its 17-jewel Swiss mechanical movement, equipped with Incabloc shock protection, reflects the technical traditions of mechanical watchmaking before quartz technology became dominant. The green sunburst dial is particularly appealing, offering a sophisticated interplay of light and colour, while the original stainless steel bracelet reinforces the watch's period-correct appearance. A charming vintage Swiss timepiece that combines mechanical heritage, distinctive design and the timeless appeal of 1970s watchmaking. Internal Reference Number - ITM 1063
