Since 1888, Carl F. Bucherer has been making fine quality watches and jewelry. A reputation for quality, style, individuality and magnificence have been the hallmarks of this illustrious brand from the opening of Bucherer's first store on the Falkenplatz in Lucerne to the present day. In the early years of the twentieth century, the imperial court in Berlin, in acknowledgment of Bucherer's growing reputation for superior quality and craftmanship, assigned it the title of 'Official Watchmaker'. Throughout the twentieth century the brand's reputation grew, and with the recent release of the Patravi TravelTec GMT, Carl F. Bucherer has once again blazed a new trail in the world of watchmaking, creating a patented three-time zone movement for today's modern and stylish traveler.
