Every timepiece has its own beating heart: the movement. Developing a movement calls for an innovative culture, passion, extreme precision, and conceptual finesse – characteristics that Carl F. Bucherer possesses in abundance.

In 2008, Carl F. Bucherer established itself as an industry leader in the field of peripheral technology with the launch of a major innovation: an automatic movement driven by a bidirectional mechanism with a peripheral oscillating weight, in a series production.

Key technical milestones in Carl F. Bucherer’s watchmaking accomplishments are the CFB A1000 and CFB A2000 manufacture caliber families, which incorporate a bidirectional, automatic winding system with a peripheral rotor. The CFB T3000, a unique movement developed entirely in-house, is a world-first that combines a peripheral automatic winding system and a peripherally mounted tourbillon that appears to float. With the CFB MR3000, Carl F. Bucherer set new horological standards and underscored its leadership in peripheral technology: for the first time, the peripheral rotor was combined not only with a peripherally mounted floating tourbillon but also with a peripherally mounted minute repeater regulator.
