German watch brand known for exceptional value and made-in-Germany quality. ARCHIMEDE produces mechanical watches with in-house manufactured cases, combining Swiss movements with German craftsmanship in the traditional watchmaking city of Pforzheim.
ARCHIMEDE was born from the century-old Ickler watch case manufacture. Karl Ickler founded the family business in Pforzheim in 1924, establishing a reputation for premium watch cases. After WWII, his sons Heinz and Kurt rebuilt production in 1947. Planning for the ARCHIMEDE brand began at the turn of the millennium, with the first models released in 2003. The Pilot collection quickly established ARCHIMEDE as a value leader in German-made pilot watches. Now in its fourth generation under Thomas Ickler with support from his children Lisa and Raphael, the company maintains complete in-house case manufacturing while creating watches across multiple collections.
