Baden, 20 minutes from Zurich

Engagement rings for couples from Baden: 20 minutes to Zurich

From Baden to Zurich it's often just 15 to 20 minutes by train, shorter than a lunch break. No wonder so many couples from the spa town make the short hop to our atelier in Zurich District 4 for their engagement ring, rather than settling for the local choice.

At émin you sit at a table, not in front of a display case. We show you diamonds in daylight, explain openly what you're paying for, and build the ring the way you both actually want it, whether solitaire, halo, or a quiet setting with a single, honestly sourced stone.

Why the short trip from Baden is worth it

Almost a local appointment

20 minutes on the train, less than many people's commute to their own station. The trip to Zurich pays off because the choice is so much wider.

Honest numbers, no boutique theatre

We break down every item openly: stone, setting, work. No artificially high starting price later sold to you as a generous discount.

Custom-made for your story

No off-the-shelf catalogue ring. We fit the setting and shank so the ring stays comfortable for years.

How to reach us from Baden

Baden is one of the best-connected towns in the region, often faster to reach by train than by car through Zurich.

  • By train

    S-Bahn and Intercity trains get you from Baden station to Zurich main station in 15 to 20 minutes without changing, several times an hour.

  • By tram

    From the main station, tram 2 or 3 takes about eight minutes to the Kalkbreite stop, then just a short walk to us.

  • By car

    The A1 connects Baden and Zurich directly; Parkhaus Hardau is only a few minutes' walk from the atelier.

  • By video

    If the timing doesn't work, we're just as happy to consult by video, including a ring-sizing kit we send to your home beforehand.

Video consultations with a ring-sizing kit by post

Even a short trip from Baden doesn't always fit a busy week. That's why we offer a video consultation just as personal as an atelier appointment: we show you stones and settings on camera and take the time for every question.

Before the call, we send a ring-sizing kit to your home so your size is settled beforehand. By the end of the call you have a clear picture of your ring, without needing to take extra time off.

Baden, the spa quarter, and the day after

Baden lives up to its name: the historic spa quarter along the Limmat is being revived, alongside the Kursaal Baden as a grand hall and the Trafo as a spot for a smaller, more relaxed celebration. The registry office sits right in the old town, walking distance from most riverside venues.

For the ring itself, most couples still come to Zurich, simply because the choice of stones and settings is wider and we can give more time than a quick boutique visit allows. At just 20 minutes away, that's hardly a detour for most.
