Expert Care for Every Watch Style & Collection

We specialize in repairing popular Helma collections. Learn more about the history of these collections:

The Helma Altus is a rare mid-20th-century Swiss-made wristwatch carrying the “Altus” name under the Helma brand, often described as a WWII-era military or field-style piece. It typically features a small 33–34 mm case, a manual-wind movement, and a simple utilitarian dial with Arabic numerals and either sub-seconds or center seconds, reflecting the practical design of the era. Because archival information on this exact model is scarce, the Altus is viewed more as a clean, functional vintage watch—and a collector’s curiosity—than a well-documented entry in Helma’s history.

We know that your Helma watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come. 

The Helma DH watch was inspired by the German military’s standardized “Dienstuhr Heer” specifications during World War II, which required simple, highly legible, and reliable field watches that infantry soldiers could read instantly in harsh conditions; its design followed the same functional blueprint used across many DH-issued brands—black dial, luminous Arabic numerals, railroad minute track, sub-seconds, and a rugged AS 1130 manual movement—reflecting a purely utilitarian purpose rather than any stylistic ambition, making it a tool built for durability, clarity, and wartime practicality.

The Helma Military watch was inspired by the straightforward, no-nonsense design language of mid-20th-century field watches, built to provide soldiers and service personnel with a durable, easily readable tool that could withstand the rough handling of daily military use; its simple Arabic numerals, matte dial, and reliable mechanical movement reflected a purpose-driven philosophy centered on clarity, shock resistance, and practicality, mirroring the larger military-watch trend of the 1930s–1950s where function dictated form and every element served a tactical purpose.

The Helma Reissue watch was inspired by the brand’s original WWII-era DH military pieces, aiming to modernize the rugged, utilitarian spirit of those field watches while making them more wearable for contemporary collectors; its design echoes the clean black dials, bold numerals, and straightforward functionality of the wartime originals but updates them with larger cases, automatic movements, sapphire crystals, and exhibition backs, blending historical military aesthetics with modern features so the watch feels both nostalgic and current.

We know that your Helma watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come. 

The Helma Tourbillon watch was inspired by the idea of elevating the brand’s simple military heritage into a more ambitious, luxury-styled creation, using the tourbillon as a statement of mechanical artistry rather than battlefield utility; it takes cues from classic Helma DH designs in its bold dial layout and straightforward case shape but transforms them with an exposed regulating mechanism, modern finishing, and a focus on visual drama, reimagining the once-practical Helma identity as something refined, technical, and meant to showcase high-end watchmaking flair rather than serve purely as a tool watch.

We know that your Helma watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.

HISTORY OF HELMA

The Legacy of Helma: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation

Helma watches, from Biel/Bienne, Switzerland emerged in the early-to-mid 20th century as a small Swiss maker producing practical, reliable timepieces during a growing demand for sturdy field and military-style watches. Known for its Dienstuhr Heer (DH) wartime pieces and postwar field models, the brand emphasized legibility, simplicity, and rugged movements like the AS 1130, focusing on dependable function over luxury during an era shaped by conflict and utilitarian needs.

Though never a large-scale manufacturer, Helma built a quiet legacy through the durable watches that outlived the company itself. Its DH models and rarer pieces like the Helma Altus are now valued for their wartime connections, honest construction, and reliability, leaving Helma remembered as one of the modest Swiss names whose unpretentious designs endured long after production stopped.
