[ZEPPELIN]
A high quality “MADE IN GERMANY” item that pursues the essence. Since our establishment, we have maintained an attitude of pursuing uniqueness and essence.
Since the mid-1970s, as watches have become mass-produced and consumed as a commodity, Willi Burke, the founder of Pointec, sensed the need for European watches that emphasized individuality and quality, and created Zeppelin. Established.
■ “MADE IN GERMANY” “Quality first”
High-quality parts are used throughout, including the dome-shaped glass windshield seen on typical models and the galvanic dial that curves toward the periphery. At our factory in Germany, we maintain high quality that meets the strict standards required to be “MADE IN GERMANY.”
In addition, for the movement it is equipped with, we have chosen a highly accurate Swiss or Japanese movement that is highly acclaimed around the world. Through the work of experienced German craftsmen, the brand’s “quality first” principle is realized with high cost performance.
A classic design reminiscent of the elegant world of aviation Founder Willy Burke thought that creating a story based on the great history of aviation was an important factor in realizing the idea of “a German watch that pursues the essence.” In particular, he focused on the world view brought about by the rigid airship now known as the Zeppelin.
In 1900, the first rigid airship developed by Count Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin and others, commonly known as the Zeppelin, was completed. Since then, rigid airships have continued to evolve, becoming faster and larger, and they have also achieved feats such as crossing the Atlantic Ocean and circumnavigating the world.
At the same time, in the early 20th century, when humanity’s desire for flight began to blossom, cruising in the air on rigid airships became a symbol of elegant travel, also known as the “art of travel.” We believed that this attitude of constant evolution and a world view that combined luxury and luxury was what was needed for a watch brand that was considered cutting-edge at the time in the 1980s.
As for the watch, one of its features is that it is inspired by the structure of an airship, with a cylinder dial with rounded edges and a bulging dome-shaped windshield, creating a classic design. As a result, it has been recognized by experts around the world and has received numerous awards.
“Zeppelin” develops products with good design that coexist with classicism and elegance.
All products are assembled in our own factory in Leura, a symbol of German watchmaking.
The parent company Pointech is based in Ismaning, a city on the outskirts of Munich. The manufacturing base is our own factory in Leura, a city in Thuringia, also known as the “green heart of Germany.”
Built in Bauhaus style in 1929, the property is listed as a historical monument and has been part of Pointec since 2019. This facility was established in 1863. Before the unification of Germany, 10,000 employees produced numerous watches here.

Zeppelin watches, born from Lula, which was once the symbol of German watchmaking next to Glashütte, can be said to be an important presence in the German watch world.
