design by Fabian Schwaerzler
Nomination Swiss Design Award 2019
“Maurice de Mauriac’s minimal and ultra-modernist L Series has become something of a modern classic, designed in close collaboration with fellow Zurich visionary Mr Fabian Schwaerzler – a close friend of founder Mr Dreifuss. Mr Schwaerzler’s signature style translates effortlessly from his usual oeuvre of chairs and sofas to the matter of a circular timepiece, its purpose and functionality heightened through his purist approach.”

Watch Specifications
Automatic in steel, side perspective
The cases for automatic watches are 12 mm tall and have a crown. The crown offers good grip and precise turning, thereby making adjustments to the watch very easy. The watch is water resistant to 10 ATM. This means that the watch can be worn, for example, while washing your hands, in the rain, in the shower, while washing the car, skiing, trekking or swimming.”
Automatic, caseback
Our display back case uses a blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal and thus allows for an unobstructed view of the pulsating caliber. One has the feeling that the soul of the mechanical automatic movement can both be felt and seen. The watch is alive. Together with the possibility of the custom labeled rotor, each watch becomes a truly personal gift – even to oneself.

Steel
Not all steels are created equal. We use 316L stainless steel; one of the hardest premium steels in the world. In addition to its hardness and resistance, this high-quality steel stands out because of its finish as well as it very fine silver hue. 316L steel has a significantly lower nickel emission than, for instance, 904L steel, which is also a high-strength steel alloy. This is, for us, a reason to favour 316L stainless steel.
The darker, the brighter
Super-LumiNova is a brand name under which strontium aluminate–based non-radioactive and non-toxic photoluminescent or afterglow pigments for illuminating markings on watch dials, hands and bezels, etc. in the dark are marketed. This technology offers up to ten times higher brightness than previous zinc sulfide-based materials. When the luminescent pigments were stimulated by daylight or artificial light, they give off the light energy in the dark for several hours. This gives the watch extremely good legibility even in the dark.

L-Series
Fabian Schwaerzler, Swiss designer and as such purist, has chosen the line as a design element and thus designed the L-series, the line series, from the Bauhaus era into the present. They have become icons of watch design. His design allows the watches to be discreetly present, but also to fill the space. Follow the line. It will show you the beauty of time.
