L3 PURPLE SPHERIC DLC
MDM.L3.DLC.P.

design by Fabian Schwaerzler

“The horizontal tri-compax layout, very popular among watch collectors, has on Schwaerzler’s work desk been reduced to lines – the raison d’être for the L series. “In design it is much harder to take away than to add. And you should not take away just for the sake of reduction, but to improve the function and the aesthetics”

Case size: 40.5 mm
Total height: 12.99 mm
log-to-log: 47.7 mm

Watch Specifications

1
Caliber C8100
Our see-through cases, a blue, anti-reflective sapphire crystal reveals the vibrant caliber. You have the feeling of being able to see and feel the soul of the mechanical movement. The watch is alive. This movement is specially made to our quality standards by Concepto. It is a manual wind movement with hours, minutes and sweep second. Second stop device, eccentric fine adjustment Etachron, 28,800 vibrations per hour, 4 Hz, 25 jewels. Also available with an automatic movement.

2
elegant pushers in DLC
Here in the black DLC version: The pushers are the direct contact between movement and human. The stop function can be started, stopped and reset. The smooth, unscrewed pushers give the watch a fine retro elegance. This is underlined by the high-curved sapphire crystal, with which the watch slides very gently under cuffs.

3
DLC coating
Stainless steel or titanium with a DLC-coating (Diamond-Like-Carbon) stands out via its beautiful grey / black colour. DLC makes stainless steel extremely abrasion and scratch resistant. Moreover, the layer of carbon applied in a state-of-the-art vacuum process is also highly anti-allergenic.

4
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.

Tripadvisor

Tripadvisor

I bought my watch more than 4 years ago and brought it in for servicing. This was done of course very quickly and professionally. But coming to Maurice Mauriac is more than about watches. He introduced me and my wife to the Reitberg Museaum - even driving us there personally - and gave us great trips for our Europe trip. The warmth and family atmosphere is unique and a must visit for any watch enthusiast.

YOU HAVE A NEW WEBSITE!

Because it’s just for you! Here you are not the fastest in the shopping cart. You should have fun with us, our stories and watches. Not that it should be burdensome. But we do not see ourselves as a short acquaintance, which you should quickly leave again, but as friends, as family, as good buddies, whom you like to visit, where you stay, read, marvel, laugh and experience something together with us. The rest will come all by itself. Or sometimes not.

Massimo and Leonard and the whole Dreifuss Family
