The Legacy of Grana and Certina The story of Grana begins in 1888, when the Kurth brothers founded their watchmaking workshop in Grenchen, Switzerland. The brand’s name originated from “Granacus,” the Latin name for Grenchen, paying homage to its hometown and Swiss roots. As the company’s reputation for craftsmanship and innovation grew, it embraced a new identity: Certina, introduced in 1939. This name, derived from the Latin “certus” meaning “sure” or “certain,” symbolized the brand’s unwavering commitment to precision and reliability. Over the decades, Certina established itself as a pioneer in robust and accurate sports watches, all while honoring the finesse and quality ingrained in Grana’s original vision. The Grana (Certina) Blue Ribbon stands today as an elegant bridge between past and present—an embodiment of Swiss horological excellence and a treasured piece of history for discerning collectors.
