Traditional style Swiss city of rubbernecks (5)

I believe the answer is:

berne

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'traditional style swiss city' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'of rubbernecks' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'BERNE' is hidden in the letters of 'rubbernecks'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for berne that I've seen before include "Swiss capital" , "Swiss city (1886 copyright convention)" , "Capital of Switzerland" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
