The logo was intended to differentiate the Elsener knives from the competitors and copycats who sprang up in the wake of his early success, many of which came from Germany. For us, the Victorinox Cross & Shield is a very meaningful symbol: the cross represents strength and positivity, the shield represents protection.

Victorinox Watches Since 1989, we've been making watches right here in Switzerland. Each one is crafted and designed to strike the perfect balance between performance and timeless elegance.

The Victorinox knives are all made in Switzerland. They do sell some Chinese made accessories, but not knives.

The company that created these products was founded in 1884 and named Messerfabrik Carl Elsener, the workshop of Karl Elsener in Ibach. In 1891, Elsener co-founded an association of Swiss knife manufacturers, Schweizerischer Messerschmiedverband.

- Swiss Cross: The most iconic symbol on a Swiss army knife is the Swiss cross, which represents the Swiss origin and quality of the product.

Victorinox Swiss Army watches after 2004 usually have a serial number and a model number on the case back.

It should be noted that all Victorinox watches have the model number (5 or 6 digits) stamped somewhere on the caseback. As yours lacks this, I think it's not real. I clicked on this link thinking there was very little chance of it being a fake because it's not a very popular brand, but that definitely looks fake to me.

The Swiss Army knife is a pocketknife, generally multi-tooled, now manufactured by Victorinox. The term "Swiss Army knife" was coined by American soldiers after World War II after they had trouble pronouncing the German word "Offiziersmesser", meaning "officer's knife".

Switzerland is known for being a neutral country. They have not been part of any wars for 500 years. So, Switzerland and its flag became a symbol of peace. In addition, the flag also represents freedom for the Swiss people, loyalty, and honor.
