Bucherer has been synonymous with quality, innovation, and passion since 1888. Founded in Lucerne, this modest Swiss family business has grown into the internationally renowned Bucherer brand with its own worldwide chain of stores. The Bucherer Group remains family-run today and is currently in its third generation. Watches and their movements are developed and manufactured in the company\u2019s own workshops in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Launched at Baselworld 2015, the\u00a0<strong>Manero Tourbillon<\/strong>\u00a0impresses with a blend of elegance and technical finesse. A circular cutout in the dial at 6 o\u2019clock offers a view onto the fascinating moving heart of the tourbillon. The date is shown with a third hand. The numbers change position at 3 and 9 o\u2019clock, enabling comfortable reading. The in-house Manufacture CFB T1001 movement is endowed with a comfortable 70-hour power reserve, which is displayed on the power reserve indicator at 9 o\u2019clock. The upper dial is complemented by a 24-hour display at 12 o\u2019clock. The traditional complexity of the tourbillon takes on a contemporary interpretation with the concisely positioned wedge-shaped index hour-markers, the bold lettering and digits typical of Carl F. Bucherer, along with tapered hour and minute hands. This elegance is skillfully carried through with a luxurious case made of fine rose gold and, for the first time, with a satin-brushed dial in a velvety brown color, especially created for Carl F. Bucherer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/preprod.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bucherer1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"358\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pathos Queen Rose Gold\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Case\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a018K rose gold, 54 TW VVS diamonds (0.7 cts), domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on one side, sapphire crystal case-back, water-resistant to 30m\u00a0<strong>Diameter\u2009:\u00a0<\/strong>26.5mm\u00a0<strong>Movement\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0self-winding mechanical movement (Caliber CFB 1969, 38h power reserve)\u00a0<strong>Functions\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0hours, minutes, seconds, date\u00a0<strong>Dial\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0silver with gold applied hour-markers, golden hands\u2009\u00a0<strong>Bracelet\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a018K rose gold, 18K rose gold folding clasp *see special report on page 68<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pathos Diva Rose Gold<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Case\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a018K rose gold (also available set with 38 TW VVS diamonds) domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on one side, sapphire crystal case-back, water-resistant to 30m\u00a0<strong>Diameter\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a034mm\u00a0<strong>Movement\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0self-winding mechanical movement (Caliber CFB 1963, 38h power reserve) \u00a0<strong>Functions\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0hours, minutes, seconds, date\u00a0<strong>Dial\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0silver with gold applied hour-markers, golden hands\u00a0<strong>Bracelet\u2009:\u00a0<\/strong>18K rose gold, 18K rose gold folding clasp<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, Carl F.

The Manero ChronoPerpetual combines the perpetual calendar with a complete chronograph. The complexity of such a timekeeping mechanism makes this watch an even more unique masterpiece.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Successfully launched in 2014, the Pathos collection features a uniquely exciting design. Its 2015 addition is the\u00a0<strong>Pathos Rose Gold,<\/strong>\u00a0made entirely of warm and glamorous 18-karat rose gold. The precious metal accentuates the distinctive aureole design, which is the hallmark of the Pathos collection. Artfully embedded in the case, the filigree halo of the aureole reflects the light in countless fascinating facets. It comes in two different versions, with a wave design or filigree grid. The exquisite dial comes in precious, scintillating mother-of-pearl or with delicate ornamentation against a pure white background. The case shines in clear rose gold or set with sparkling diamonds. Also made of finely crafted pure rose gold elements, the Pathos bracelet harmoniously rounds off the composition of the timepiece.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/preprod.gmtmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bucherer2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"358\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Patravi ScubaTec<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Case\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a018K rose gold (also available in steel), 18K rose gold\/ceramic bezel, automatic helium valve and crown protection made of blackened titanium, screw-down crown, case-back engraved with time-zone sun showing the hours in 24 cities, water resistant to 500 m\u00a0<strong>Diameter\u2009:\u00a0<\/strong>44,5mm\u00a0<strong>Movement\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0self-winding mechanical movement (Caliber CFB 1950.1, 38h power reserve)\u00a0<strong>Functions\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0hours, minutes, seconds, date\u00a0<strong>Dial\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0black, gold applied hour-markers and hands, luminescent coating\u00a0<strong>Bracelet\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0rubber strap, diving clasp made of 18K rose gold and blackened titanium<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patravi TravelTec II<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Case\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0stainless steel with screw-down crown, case-back engraved with time-zone sun showing hours of 24 cities, water resistant to 100m\u00a0<strong>Diameter\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a047.4mm\u00a0<strong>Movement\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0self-winding mechanical movement (Caliber CFB 1901.1, 42h power reserve)\u00a0<strong>Functions\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0hours, minutes, seconds, 2-counter chronograph, 3 time zones, date \u00a0<strong>Dial\u2009:<\/strong>\u00a0black\u00a0<strong>Strap\u2009:\u00a0<\/strong>rubber (also available in stainless steel), folding clasp with stainless steel comfort extension<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Peerless and convenient functionality, clear time orientation and\u00a0<\/strong><strong>unpretentious design<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong>For the tenth anniversary of the Patravi TravelTec line, Carl F.

Another special feature of the Patravi TravelTec II is that the date display can move forward as well as backward when changing the hour setting.

The black and blue ceramic inlays on the unidirectional rotating bezel create striking highlights that harmonize perfectly with rose gold. Equally impressive is the black dial, which has a gleaming scale-like structure that creates myriad reflections similar to the effect of light striking the surface of the sea. One very special detail of the certified chronometer can be found on the titanium case-back\u2009: its surface features an iridescent relief depicting two rays, the symbols of the Manta Trust, which works to protect and conduct research into these majestic inhabitants of the world\u2019s oceans. \u201cThe Patravi ScubaTec is made for explorers,\u201d explains Sascha Moeri, CEO of Carl F.
