4. LIMITED EDITION RACQUET X MAURICE DE MAURIAC
Racquet presents its fourth watch, the Rallymaster IV, a tennis-inspired wristwatch developed in collaboration with us. The all-black design celebrates the tennis lifestyle on and off the court.
The watch was designed by Carlton DeWoody, a designer best known for his interior design work, and is inspired by the unique graphic dials of the 1960s and 1970s. For this partnership, Racquet and Maurice de Mauriac teamed up with DeWoody, whose passion for tennis and profound knowledge of vintage watches made him an ideal collaborator.
Only 100 Rallymaster IV watches will be produced.

Watch Specifications
Rallymaster IV – Caseback
The blue Racquet logo has been applied to the inside of the glass back, ensuring it remains perfectly visible at all times without wearing away. The darkened sapphire crystal surrounding the logo reveals the pulsating calibre. You feel as though you can see and feel the soul of the mechanical automatic movement. The watch is alive. Rallymaster IV – Black Crown
The case is 12 mm high and the glass has a date magnifier. The crown is easy to grip and turn precisely, making it very easy to set the watch. The watch is water-resistant to 10 ATM. This means that the watches can be worn while washing your hands, in the rain, while washing up and showering, while washing the car, skiing, trekking and, of course, diving. The black crown is fitted with a tennis ball. Rallymaster IV – The Watchbox
The watch box contains a specially made black tennis ball and an extra two-piece leather strap, with quick-release fasteners. Rallymaster IV – PVD Coating
The PVD-coating (Physical Vapour Deposition) increases the hardness of 316L stainless steel or titanium. The surface is particularly smooth and offers the surface structure more lasting protection. During the vaporization process the ion particles of the original material are replaced by particles of another color. The result is deep black. Rallymaster IV – The darker, the brighter
Superluminova is a phosphorescent phosphor and free of radioactive additives. Superluminova is a hundred times brighter than other inactive luminescent pigments. When the luminescent pigments have been excited by daylight or artificial light, they release the absorbed light energy over several hours in the dark. This gives the watch extremely good legibility even in the dark. Rallymaster IV – Photoshoot
There will only be 100 Rallymaster IV watches available worldwide. First come, first served. You can order the Rallymaster IV from our online shop or from our studio in Zurich. 1

Special Edition
A Swiss air force squadron wears our watches at supersonic speeds, our watches have accompanied the long journey to the moon, they have chased felt balls, plunged down mountains, rowed across the Atlantic, conquered the desert, and graced the stages of the world. Not just like that, but as a collaboration in which two names proudly adorn a watch. The collaborators are world-famous or only known in their own world. For us, they are heroes. Each one for themselves. And each one for you.
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.

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.
