Following in the footsteps of the AM08

At the dawn of the 2010s, the Belgian rail network saw the introduction of a new generation of railcars designed for smooth operation, accessibility, and daily commuter service. The AM08 trains have thus become key players in passenger transport in Belgium, embodying a quiet renaissance at the heart of the network.

An illustration of the AM08

At 12 o’clock on the dial, the AM08 seems suspended in time. With its fluid, familiar silhouette, it evokes the commuter trains that connect cities and carry passengers across the Belgian rail network. Its presence thus becomes a subtle tribute: a tribute to continuous motion, to accessible modernity… now etched into the heart of the watch.

AM08: The Daily Movement Since 2012

The AM08 is a generation of electric multiple units that entered service in 2012 for SNCB. Designed by Siemens AG, they stand out for their accessibility, versatility, and daily presence across the entire Belgian rail network. Designed to handle passenger flows smoothly, they embody a quiet renaissance of rail travel: one that is simpler, more accessible… and deeply rooted in the rhythm of modern life.

“The railroad is civilization moving full steam ahead.”

— Victor Hugo
