In 1888, Carl Friedrich Bucherer opened a jewellery and watch shop in Lucerne, Switzerland, marking the beginning of a story that would become legendary. His two sons, Carl-Eduard and Ernst, joined the company, working tirelessly to push the boundaries of what was possible. From 1949 to 1959, they developed a chronograph and world timer, taking advantage of the rising trend of individual travelling. They continued to innovate by creating several Chronometer Certified timepieces and a SuperCompressor dive watch that could withstand depths of up to 200m from 1960 to 1979. In 2001, Carl F. Bucherer was launched and marked the start of a new era. The company has since developed its first in-house movement and Tourbillon CFB A1000 in 2013, followed by the Cal. CFB A2000 and the CFB T3000 in 2018. Today, Carl F. Bucherer continues to lead the industry by improving its in-house movements and producing sophisticated timepieces that are second to none. Their unwavering commitment to excellence is evident in every piece they create.
