Sherpa Watches

Founded by Swiss-born engineer and lifelong watch enthusiast Martin Klocke, Sherpa Watches revives the golden era of mechanical tool watches with a modern spirit. Drawing inspiration from iconic mid-century brands, Klocke and his team of German and Swiss artisans meticulously handcraft each timepiece using the original Compressor case technology developed by Ervin Piquerez. The result is a collection that unites vintage authenticity with contemporary precision, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and enduring design.

Among its standout modern recreations are the Sherpa Ultradive, a refined yet robust Compressor dive watch offering 200 meters of water resistance, and the Sherpa OPS, a military-inspired model built for strength and reliability. Both timepieces reflect the brand’s devotion to reimagining the pioneering spirit of the 1950s, when watches accompanied explorers to ocean depths and mountain peaks alike. Sherpa Watches honors that legacy through uncompromising quality, innovative engineering, and a deep respect for the Sherpa people whose courage inspired this timeless name.
