L2 BRONZE DEEP GREEN
MDM.L2.BR.GN
design by Fabian Schwaerzler
“The clear, unadorned lines of the L Series are perfect for a diver’s iteration, which is as much substance as it is style: waterproof to 300m, Zurich bronze case and a helium outlet valve are other features. What does that mean? Nothing less than the ability to make a long saturation dive without worrying that your sapphire glass will fall off when you finally reappear and relax.”

L2 Helium release valve
During extreme diving situations, helium atoms make their way into the watch. As such, the process of decompression could dislodge the watch crystal. The helium release valve prevents this from occurring by allowing the excess pressure to escape via the valve and due to this, it is possible to dive below 300 meters. L2 Caseback
A watch like a lion, a sea lion. What animal is closely associated with people and is known for its skilful ability to dive to great depths? The sea lion. The backside of the L2 is adorned with this magnificent creature, whose manoeuvrability, elegance and function attuned to life underwater stand for a diving watch blending all of these traits. Given that the lion is the symbol of Zurich, the city that has shaped the evolution of this watch, it seems only appropriate that the sea lion should be the symbol of the Maurice de Mauriac L2. A roar – both below and above water – has been sent out from Maurice de Mauriac throughout the world. Bronze
We use a very individual bronze alloy sourced in Zurich. Bronze is anti-magnetic, resistant to wear, elastic, slightly more brittle, and 10% heavier than stainless steel. Above all, it stands out due to its resistance to seawater. Beneath a layer of oxidized copper, the material offers lasting protection. The discoloration of the bronze is particularly appealing and means that every watch, over time, evolves into a unique piece—one solely influenced by the life of the watch owner. While bronze can stain, these stains are usually removed in the normal laundry process. Caliber ETA 28.24-2
ETA 28.24-2 is one of the most famous Swiss watch movement.TOP Execution

L2 Deep Green Dial
A deep green, like that found in the leaves of a forest, meets bronze – the oldest man-made metal alloy. This green stands for life, tranquillity and consistency. And bronze? It defies time and water, protects itself and gains character with every passing moment. This is complemented by 300 metres of water resistance. The L2 deep green Bronze doesn't just measure time – it breathes with nature, with every heartbeat, with every drop of rain. L2 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. 1

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.
Christmas came early! 🌟
We had the pleasure of customising a Züri-Date for the 10th anniversary of a Zurich-based company(and let us tell you, it was a success!)
The whole team put their creativity and dedication into it, and together with the CEOs, we created something very special to celebrate this milestone.
We couldn’t be happier to have made this evening memorable and to be part of their journey.
Maybe you’re next? 😉

Some watches tell the time. Others make it shine.
Perhaps that is precisely why the DJ duo Doppelgänger love the Pillow Ghost so much. Amid the beats, movement and people who want to lose track of time for a few hours, this watch feels remarkably at home. It dances along. On a wrist that plays music, follows rhythms and shapes the night. And while the lights flicker around it, its own glow gives time both clarity and meaning.
There is something lovely about that thought. A watch that comes most vividly to life in the very place where people would rather forget what time it is.
Pillow Ghost 👻
Because the Ghost has a special relationship with darkness. As daylight fades, its luminous dial comes to the fore. What is an exceptional piece of design by day becomes a small spectacle of light and time at night. The watch changes its appearance without losing its character. It becomes visible as so much around it disappears from view.

Is there a better watch review as from Russell Crowe himself?
We don’t think so. Enjoy @russellcrowe talking about our newest Rallymaster Swiss Tennis in collaboration with @swiss_tennis - design by @carltondewoody
Happy Sunday FAM ❤️

Oh my god, moving was a huge step for us! ❤️
Taking over our dad’s legacy has been one of the most beautiful gifts we could have received. And getting to do it together, as siblings, makes it even more special.
Wouldn’t be the same without our young, passionate team. So much love for what we do and for the people we do it with. ❤️

Our ZÜRI-DATE BRONZE PINK is a perfect fit for these autum days. The bronze has the warmth of fall, and the pink has the playfulness of summer. It’s a combination you might not necessarily expect. But as a family, we’ve never been particularly good at doing only what’s expected.
The best thing about bronze, anyway, is that it doesn’t care what it once looked like. It changes—with every day you wear it, in response to your skin, the weather, and your habits. It develops a patina that no one can predict. After a few months, your ZÜRI-DATE will look different from the one in the studio—and different from any other. Because by then, it will have become a part of you.
