The STOWA brand is one of the most significant representatives of German watchmaking, with its roots dating back to 1927 when Walter Storz founded it in the Black Forest. The name STOWA was formed by combining the first letters of the founder's surname and first name – "STO" and "WA" – and soon became a symbol of precise watchmaking craftsmanship. Already in the 1930s, the brand made its mark with elegant models inspired by the then-modern Bauhaus style, from which the later famous Antea series emerged.

The 1940s marked a turning point when STOWA began producing legendary aviator watches – the so-called Flieger. These large and highly legible timepieces were intended for pilots and became one of the pillars of the brand's history. Along with several other manufacturers, STOWA was among the five companies that supplied original pilot watches for the German Air Force. The Flieger are still considered icons today, and the brand continues this tradition with modern reissues that retain the original character and aesthetics.

After the war, STOWA continued to produce functional and elegant watches, including marine chronometers, which inspired today's Marine line. In the 1990s, a new chapter began when watchmaker Jörg Schauer took over the brand. Under his leadership, STOWA successfully returned to the scene and began to produce not only pilot models, but also timeless classics like Antea, Partitio, and Marine, which today combine historical roots with modern technology and precise craftsmanship.

Today, STOWA is perceived as a brand that maintains authenticity and respect for tradition, while appealing to mechanical watch enthusiasts worldwide. It combines history, timeless design, and German precision, thanks to which it remains a synonym for quality watchmaking craftsmanship even after nearly a hundred years.
