RETRO REVISITED:
THE HERITAGE BICOMPAX ANNUAL
THE HERITAGE BICOMPAX ANNUAL
The latest addition to the Carl F. Bucherer Heritage collection is not just a look back at the watchmaker’s own history, but also an ode to the zeitgeist of the 1950s – in a decidedly modern package.

An Era That Left Its Mark
For design fans and vintage-lovers, 1956 was a true banner year, giving us the Saarinen Tulip Chair and Eames Lounge Chair, Grace Kelly’s wedding dress and Elvis Presley’s first number one hit. Meanwhile, Switzerland was also celebrating a premiere of its own : it was around this time that Carl F. Bucherer introduced a chronograph with a design that was ahead of its time.

Classic Case Design Meets Modern Mechanics
The new Heritage BiCompax Annual has adopted the elegant shape of its predecessor, but in a modern 41 mm diameter stainless steel case. It is available in two versions, each limited to just 888 pieces – a tribute to the founding year of the Lucerne company with the long-standing tradition in 1888. Modern and pure, the stainless steel model boasts a silver dial, black totalizators, and a structured rubber strap.

An Old Soul with a Young Heart
Both watches are powered by the sophisticated CFB 1972 caliber automatic movement, which boasts 42 hours of power reserve. In addition to chronograph functionality, the watch also features an annual calendar that displays a large date above the center and the month between 4 and 5 o’clock.

Just like its predecessor, the reinterpreted timepiece has a characteristic BiCompax display and tachymeter scale in a harmonious typeface. A successful combination of modern and vintage elements, the Heritage BiCompax Annual highlights the watchmaking finesse of Carl F. Bucherer, making it a worthy addition to the new Heritage collection.
Ode to a Rich Heritage
The Carl F. Bucherer Heritage line was launched in New York just last year. It is a tribute to both the multi faceted tradition of the Swiss watchmaker and Carl F. Bucherer’s roots in Lucerne.
