Although the legacy of Carl F. Bucherer dates to 1888, in recent history the brand has made a serious impact as an independent watchmaker. With their impressive Peripheral Technology the fundament was created for several high-end in-house complications in recent years.
Peripheral Technology
The Peripheral Technology, introduced in 2008, has attributed extensively to the positioning of the brand as a serious watchmaker in the higher segment. The technology is a great example of both the watchmaking expertise and the innovative thinking of the Lucerne brand. It started with the peripheral rotor, where parts are not fixed to the movement plates and bridges, but rotate on a periphery type ball bearing. Not only visually more attractive, but also thinner and more efficient.
Choosing the complication is an important step in the Individualisation process at Carl F. Bucherer
The technology became the brands’ philosophy and hallmark, and In the next decade Carl F. Bucherer developed 5 patents and 4 peripheral in-house movements, introducing complications such as a floating tourbillon and triple peripheral minute repeater.
Individualization Roadshow
Today Carl F. Bucherer takes another step with the introduction of the Mastery Lab, the new department for individualization. Based on demands and input from their best clients, the brand now offers almost unlimited possibilities to customize and individualize timepieces. In a worldwide roadshow clients are invited to enter the Carl F. Bucherer universe, learn and understand its heritage and create their own high-end timepiece.
