This shop has since grown into an international company, and Carl F.

Made of Lucerne
The color of the watch pays homage to the city in which the company was founded. This is instantly recog-nizable on the meticulously finished blue-galvanized dial, whose sunburst finish makes it shimmer like the surface of Lake Lucerne on a sunny summer’s day. The appliquéd wedge-shaped indices for the hours and lancet-shaped hands are both red-gold-plated, a typical feature of the Manero family.

Blue is the main color of Lucerne’s coat of arms, while gold represents the city as a cultural melting pot, a place where tradition is very much alive, and a city that is home to stunning baroque buildings. The striking dial is perfectly com-plemented by the discreet stainless steel case. It features classically rounded contours and clean-cut angles which, together with the contrast between the polished and matte surfaces, lend it a truly stunning look.
A Distinctive Manufacture
The Manero Peripheral combines classic design with modern engineering. It is powered by the CFB A2050 caliber, which was launched in 2016 and designed and developed completely in-house. Its movement, which is a modified version of the CFB A2000, is a certified chronometer and features a central hour and minute display, a small-seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, and a date display at 3 o’clock. It also features a tribute to Swiss watchmaking tradition in the form of the Geneva stripes on the movement’s bridges and cocks.

This automatic movement draws its power from a bidirectional automatic winding system with a PVD-coated peripheral rotor that features the same blue color as the dial. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement is therefore a further tribute to the city of Lucerne – and to the rich heritage of the Carl F. Bucherer brand.
