Chronoswiss is one of these exceptions serenely pursuing its path on the fringes of the main actors on the watchmaking scene. Transparency is a key concern for Eva and Oliver Ebstein, the second<br \/>\ngeneration of owners of the Chronoswiss brand, founded in 1983 by Gerd-R\u00fcdiger Lang and his wife from whom they acquired it two years ago (see next page). So much so indeed that they have decided to open up their workshops to the public and to install glass panels instead of the traditional partitions between offices and corridors of their brand-new worldwide headquarters at the heart of Luzern. The Unionsgeb\u00e4ude, an historical building on the famous L\u00f6wenstrasse leading to the lake, is a building symbolic of the city and which has been the scene of many different activities for over a century. It even houses Luzern\u2019s largest ballroom. \u201cChronoswiss is the Luzern brand\u201d emphasizes Oliver Ebstein. A passionate watchmaking enthusiast since his teenage years and a devotee of the brand since he began collecting watches, he has chosen to open up a learning area to the public as of this summer. The aim is not only to reveal the expertise cultivated by Chronoswiss in the field of enameling (and notably the plique-\u00e0-jour technique), skeleton-working and guilloch\u00e9, but also to explain the guiding principles of the watch industry. Artisans in the workshops, digital screens and 3D displays thereby offer visitors a journey into the watchmaking universe. Under his leadership, Chronoswiss takes pains to reintegrate outsourced divisions, and above all to resuscitate historical, even partially forgotten, crafts. Last year for the 30<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversary of Chronoswiss, the family owned brand launched the first in-house handcrafted watch edition featuring rare crafts.\u00a0 The Artist\u2019s Collection comprises three models, each of which is outfitted with a movement decorated with skeletonization and guilloch\u00e9. The dials are first lavishly decorated with guilloch\u00e9 and then lent a fascinating depth and three-dimensionality thanks to transparent enamel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/preprod.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Chronoswiss_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"358\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In 2014 Chronoswiss is presenting an extensive collection of models featuring\u00a0 traditional crafts created in their in-house studio: the\u00a0<strong>Sirius Artist line<\/strong>. Pure white (opaque) enamel dials are being reintroduced for the first time in 2014, similar to those previously seen on the 1990s Orea model. The difference is that they are now produced in Chronoswiss\u2019s own in-house dial factory. The models are also not printed with pristine snow white, they are appliqu\u00e9d and the tiny holes used for fixing must be drilled extremely carefully. New colors and patterns bring even more variety. Such as a model with a surprising two-tone dial\u2009: White on the inside and brilliant royal blue on the outside \u2013 one can still admire the beautiful guilloch\u00e9 details on the sterling silver dial through the transparent enamel, however. What is special about this is: The blue ring is not fired separately and subsequently inserted, the dial was fired as a whole. This process of simultaneously firing different colored areas on one dial requires extraordinary fingertip sensitivity. A medium size is also new, as the Sirius Artist is being launched in a 34 mm case alongside the Sirius Automatic \u2013 matching artistic craftsmanship.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As always Chronoswiss watches distinguish themselves with high recognition value and distinctive design including the oignon-style crown and the unmistakable case with its screw-down, fluted bezel as well as screw-mounted strap lugs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/preprod.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Chronoswiss_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"358\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chronoswiss created<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>a new standard by fitting a\u00a0<\/strong><strong>transparent case back<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Every success story has its roots.<\/strong>\u00a0In the case of Chronoswiss in 1983, these lie with founder and master watchmaker Gerd-R\u00fcdiger Lang, who created an entire generation of watch enthusiasts with his craftsmanship and, above all, his \u201cfascination for mechanics.\u201d After he himself had come into contact with watchmaking more or less accidentally, Gerd-R\u00fcdiger Lang quickly got excited over the complex coherencies of the insides of a watch. Opening a repair workshop for chronographs, the master watchmaker ventured down the path toward creating his own business, thus becoming one of the few to defy the march of the quartz revolution. Little by little, the passionate collector of historical chronographs developed into the creative watch designer Gerd-R\u00fcdiger Lang. His horological role models remained chronographs from the turn of the century, which he viewed as technically perfect masterpieces. With his brilliant idea of fitting a transparent case back on the case in order to make the filigreed beauty inside the watch visible to the observer, he created a new standard that was seized and continued by many other watch brands. Moreover, his R\u00e9gulateur model has become a signature model of the line and has remained a bestseller for decades. At the time of its introduction in1988, it was the very first wristwatch fitted with a regulator dial (a special way of displaying the time using an off-center hour and minute display) and also sparked a good deal of imitation among other brands. Since the founding of \u201cone of the oldest of the new watch brands\u201d in 1983, much has happened. Chronoswiss is now owned by the entrepreneur family Ebstein from Lucerne (see previous page) which plans to continue guiding the brand just as its founder would have, by enabling it to remain an independent family business that manufactures only mechanical watches in the best Swiss tradition with passion, know-how, and attention to detail.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/preprod.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Chronoswiss_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"358\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, for the first time ever, a skeletonized version of the Timemaster Chronograph made its debut within the Chronoswiss collection at Baselworld 2014, allowing an unencumbered view into the ticking heart of the watch \u2013 a fascinating chance to see inside the filigreed, decorated movement. This striking timepiece comes in a stainless steel case with a DLC-coated bezel, lending it not only dynamic visual appeal, but also robust character. DLC (\u201cdiamond-like carbon\u201d) is extremely hard and thus protects from scratching. The bezel also features a five-minute scale boasting Super-LumiNova inlays. In addition to the chronograph function, the date is displayed on a subdial positioned at 3 o\u2019clock.\u00a0 Light and shade: the Timemaster Chronograph Skeleton is available in two dial variations: mysterious black or extravagantly elegant galvanic matte silver, each unique in its own right. The white Super-LumiNova is clearly visible on the black version, allowing for excellent night reading due to the high contrast levels. The matte silver is beautifully complemented by luminous coating on the hands, dial and bezel, creating stunning turquoise blue accents.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sirius Chronograph
