Perfection in the Art of Watchmaking

The Swiss watch manufacturer Carl F. Bucherer launches its own Tourbillon with an exclusive limited edition of 188 pieces – the Manero Tourbillon limited edition 2015.

With its complexity and its mechanical refinements, the tourbillon is regarded one of the greatest challenges of the watchmaker’s art, and therefore is a supreme discipline. The Swiss Manufacturer brand Carl F. Bucherer presents this complication for the first time in a timepiece from the Manero range, underlining its skilled craftsmanship at the very highest level.

The production of a tourbillon is technically incredibly complex, and for this reason there are only a few watchmakers in the world who are able to realize this complication. For all who love this traditional masterpiece of the art of watchmaking, Carl F. Bucherer presents the new Manero Tourbillon Limited Edition.

 MANERO Tourbillon Rose Gold - Murat Yakin


The concept of the tourbillon was first developed at the end of the 18th century, designed to compensate for the errors in the accuracy of a mechanical watch caused by the effects of gravity. As a result of the different positions of the watch on the wearer’s wrist, gravity affects how quickly or slowly the balance wheel moves. In order to minimize this influence, a rotating cage was designed to house the balance wheel. This device makes it possible for the balance wheel and escapement to rotate around themselves – making them independent of the position of the watch.

Supreme  discipline in functionality

The Manero Tourbillon Limited Edition now combines for the first time the classic elegance of the Manero range with the masterpiece of the watchmaker’s art which is the tourbillon. An opening in the dial at 6 o’clock provides a view of this fascinating mechanism. The filigree delicacy of the complication makes it a centerpiece of the very highest quality. In addition to the tourbillon further special features have also been integrated into the watch. From the center, the date is indicated by a hand.

The numerals of the date scale change orientation at 3 and 9 o’clock, so that they may be clearly read at a glance. Another unusual feature of the Manero Tourbillon Limited Edition is the robust 70 hour power reserve. Remaining energy can be read via the power reserve indication at 9 o’clock. The 24-hour indication at 12 o’clock provides an additional refinement on the dial.

Clarity and elegance

In spite of the large number of functions and indications, Carl F. Bucherer has ensured optimum clarity of the dial in the Manero Tourbillon Limited Edition. This was a challenge that the designers fulfilled by means of generous proportions and the incorporation of different levels. With the strikingly positioned wedge-shaped hour markers, the striking letters and numerals typical of Carl F. Bucherer, and the tapering hours and minutes hands, the traditional complication of the tourbillon has been given a contemporary interpretation. This elegant, luxurious look is skillfully continued in the case, which is made of fine rose gold.
