Fine Watches: Carl F Bucherer is a family owned and operated business that has been creating high quality timepieces for over 90 years and three generations.

Based in Lucerne, Switzerland, Carl F Bucherer makes beautiful and stylish products that combine fine jewelry-making skills, and sophistication with timeless style.

As a testament to quality and precision, the Carl F. Bucherer A1000 automatic caliber was recently awarded the special "Goldene Unruh 2009" technical prize for innovation.

The company's philosophy that quality and value is more important than quantity has led Carl F Bucherer to being a leader in timepieces, so well-made that they are even fit for royalty. Carl F. Bucherer received the honor of creating a one of a kind diamond studded wristwatch for Her Royal Highness Queen Sirikit of Thailand.

In keeping with the tradition of fusing high-quality watch-making technology with jewelry, Carl F Bucherer offers three main collections: the Patravi for men with sophisticated function and style, the Manero collection with classic modern elegance and the Alacria, filled with limited edition special designs.



For the traveler, the masculine Patravi Blue Wave is one of four exclusive Patravi models with a blue dial, representing the blue skies and waves of distant lands. Available with either a blue leather strap or a stainless steel band, the Patravi elegantly blends multiple functions with style.

The Alacria Gothic Diva is an objet d'art inspired by Gothic architecture. 18k white gold is set with 211 rubies and 169 diamonds; it is offset by a black bracelet band of ray skin with red alligator on the underside. The precious stones are of different cuts, to meld together and give the watch a stunning and unique appearance.

No matter which style you choose, each Carl F Bucherer product is 100% Swiss made and meant to last for a lifetime.
