Carl F. Bucherer watches are famous for their attention to fine details. The company always maintains a sophisticated style that reflects their rich history, but their edge over the competition comes from their subtle and innovative technical refinements.

 

Extra functions

 

Heaven is in the details. While many watches feature a full calendar, it's quite another thing to have one that is capable of automatically displaying the different months without the need to compensate for different lengths.

Carl F. Bucherer: attention to aesthetics

 

All of the watch's functions are symmetrically displayed on the dial. The date is found a little bit under 12 o' clock, making it quick and easy to read, and it's clear here why "Swiss attention to detail" is roundly touted as one of the company's main strengths.

 

Swiss quality

 

A seven point bolt-mounting system secures the mechanism to the 108 gram red-gold case, and the one-sided sapphire glass lunette offers a high degree of scratch resistance. An 18-carat red-gold folding clasp secures the alligator-leather armband, providing the finishing touch to this elegant and comfortable watch. The case is waterproof to 50 meters.
