CHRONO MODERN BRONZE “BIG DATE” THE LEGACY
MDM.330.45.BIGDATE.BR.LEGACY
A forest knife with a mountain range on its back, a whisky that has been painstakingly wrested from nature and a mechanical watch made from archaic bronze in a box – ‘The Legacy’ – is hard to beat in terms of exciting sensuality.
This box of exclusive Swiss watchmaking art is another legacy of Daniel Dreifuss, who brought our manufactories together with his passion. Daniel continues to have an impact and his sons and their partner manufactories are now implementing his passion at a level that honours him.
Only 20 boxes are sold worldwide and CHF 9870 is an excellent investment in this pure pleasure.

CHRONO MODERN “BIG DATE” PUSHER
The pushers are the direct contact between the movement and the person. The stop function can be started, stopped and reset. To prevent these functions from being triggered accidentally, we offer screw-down crowns. The crown must be unlocked before use and secured again after use. MDM BIG DATE CASE BACK
In our see-through cases, a sapphire crystal reveals the pulsating special calibre. You have the feeling of being able to see and feel the soul of the mechanical automatic movement. Together with an engraving on the rotor, every watch becomes a highly emotional gift. Even to yourself. Bronze
We use a highly customised bronze alloy from Zurich. Bronze is anti-magnetic, low-wear, elastic, slightly more brittle and 10% heavier than stainless steel. It is particularly characterised by its resistance to seawater. The material is permanently protected under the layer of oxidising copper. The discolouration of bronze is what makes it so special and turns every watch into an absolutely unique piece that is influenced solely by the life of its owner. Bronze can discolour. This discolouration can normally be removed with normal washing. The Legacy Box
It includes a bronze Chrono Modern ‘BIG DATE’ by Maurice de Mauriac, a forest knife from PanormaKnife and a single malt whisky from the Marcado distillery. The Forest Knife
From the Panorama Knife factory exclusively shows the mountain silhouettes of Piz Bernina, Tödi, Uetli- and Wellenberg. Suitable for conquering these mountains in adventure mode. The Whisky
From the renowned Macardo distillery, is limited to just 20 bottles. An exclusive rarity for whisky connoisseurs who want to enjoy 49% alcohol in its most intoxicating form. 1

Our success is built on these watches! They are our classics, and may forever be called "Chrono Modern". Designed by Daniel Dreifuss, the 051015 dial gives both watch and owner a subtle dynamism. The dimensions of these watches and their clear edges leave no doubt - a "Chrono Modern" always adorns a strong arm. No matter whether on water, on land or in the air. Mechanically driven, of course, the "Chrono Modern" is modular in design and allows for unique customization. You will love it as it will love you.

Summer is our favorite season, so of course we had to bring out all the colorful straps and accessories ;)

Fridays for Future!!! ⚙️✨
Our passion for watchmaking is built on precision, craftsmanship, and passing knowledge on to the next generation.
At just 22 years old, Sean is already part of our team of watchmakers — and today he had the opportunity to introduce two interested students to the fascinating world of haute horlogerie. 🔍
From intricate movements and traditional craftsmanship to the passion behind every tiny detail, it was inspiring to see the curiosity and enthusiasm of these young visitors.
Because true craftsmanship lives on when it is shared. Perhaps we already met the watchmakers of tomorrow.
