The story behind this Carl F. Bucherer Manero Peripheral Perpetual Calendar BlackThe House of Carl F. Bucherer is celebrating its one hundred and thirty-fifth anniversary with remarkable technical daring by unveiling the Capsule collection. This singular project reinvents five of the brand's icons around forged carbon. The reference 00.10916.16.33.01 embodies the pinnacle of this vision. To make its mark, the Manufacture has revealed each model in a different world megalopolis. This perpetual calendar was presented in Tokyo. This geographical choice underlines the watch's duality, uniting avant-garde materials with traditional watchmaking craftsmanship. Forged carbon thus dialogues with a classic complication.Case, calibre and bracelet of this Manero Peripheral Perpetual Calendar BlackThe 41.6 mm case is machined from forged carbon and houses a protective titanium container. Its matt, marbled surface, unique to each model, contrasts with the deep black dial. The latter displays the perpetual calendar and reveals an aventurine moon phase at six o'clock, surmounted by two hand-engraved white gold moons. The dauphine-shaped hour-markers and hands are rhodium-plated to subtly catch the light. Under the domed sapphire crystal, the show continues on the back of the watch. The automatic movement, calibre CFB A2055, is COSC-certified and features 33 jewels. It beats at a frequency of 4 Hz and has a power reserve of 55 hours. Its distinctive feature is its peripheral rotor, a major innovation from the Manufacture that allows the bridges decorated with large anthracite-grey Côtes de Genève to be admired. This timepiece is fitted with a textured rubber strap equipped with a quick-change system, and closes with a PVD steel double folding clasp. Water resistance is guaranteed to 30 metres.Why this Carl F. Bucherer watchAcquiring this limited edition of 88 pieces worldwide represents a rare opportunity for discerning collectors. The combination of a classic perpetual calendar and the radical aesthetics of forged carbon creates a truly atypical piece of Haute Horlogerie. While this exclusive model remains particularly difficult to observe on the market, it offers a fascinating contemporary alternative to traditional complications often set in precious metals.
