In 2002, Daniel Dreifuss concentrated all his watchmaking experience and legendary flair into the Chrono Modern. The watch, the dial, the proportion, the patented construction - it was successful from day one. It still is today.
The 051015 dial with its 5-minute graduation became modern with the Chrono Modern. The design language is powerful, it does not fit in inconspicuously, but confidently flaunts every edge. This fascinates strong characters.
The continuity that Daniel Dreifuss has granted the watch gives his sons Massimo and Leonard, the Watchbros, the freedom to keep surprising with new models with this watch. Colors, materials, special editions - the Chrono Modern is so strong in its genes that the allows a lot, no even provokes a lot.
Whoever wears a Chrono Modern sends very clear signals. You have clear values, good genes and still know how to surprise.
The Chrono Modern is absolutely no diva. Although it should be one due to its status. It has already proven its qualities in many records and borderline situations on water, on land and in the air. No, it is not a pilot's watch, not a sailor's watch, not a racing watch. The Chrono Modern is the watch for special people. No matter what drives them, where it drives them and what they do.
In 2022, 20 years after the launch of the Chrono Modern, it continues to be a brand icon.
Enjoy the final supermoon of 2025 🪩 - with the matching watch.

Carlos Leal lives life at his own pace – with our watch
Musician, actor, nomad: Leal doesn’t think in terms of categories, but in terms of movement. Growing up in Lausanne as the son of Spanish immigrants, he experienced the tension between family warmth and Swiss precision from an early age – a tension that shaped his creativity.
As a hip-hop artist with Sens Unik, he made his mark on the sound of the 1990s. Leal continued to follow his inner rhythm – into acting. Snow White was his breakthrough, followed by international productions such as Casino Royale and engagements in Hollywood.

A border crosser with a sense of rhythm – Carlos Leal
Some people wear time like an accessory. Others feel time as an inner pulse – rhythm, attitude, energy. Carlos Leal is one of the latter.
His path is not a straight line, but an elegant curve through life – sweeping like the hands of a watch. It is precisely this attitude that connects him to us and our watches. Carlos wears our moon phase not as a status symbol, but as a companion to an attitude: attentive, curious, always on the move. An artist who doesn’t measure time, but lives it – and thus fits in perfectly with us.

Events
PADELTA – PULS 5
04 .09 – 10 .12
Location: Giessereistrasse 18, 8005 Zurich, Switzerland
This game pushes you to your physical and emotional limits. It’s a great opportunity to appreciate the physicality of an automatic watch. That’s why we’ll be there with our watches.
BERN POP-UP
15 .09 – 31 .12
Location: Uhrsachen, Theaterpl. 1, 3011 Bern, Switzerland
In Switzerland, Swiss watches are not particularly striking. Unless, of course, it’s a watch that speaks to you in the Swiss dialect. We’ll be showing you this watch and other horological surprises at our pop-up store in Bern!
THRYVE Concept Store
01 .10 – 01 .02
Location: Bärengasse 16, 8001 Zurich
Concept stores are very special places in themselves. So we present ourselves there in a very special way. With the smallest watch boutique in the world. You can “talk” there with the concept watches from our City Date collection. And gaze at other watches that simply stare back at you in a relaxed manner.
Polarzauber
20 .11 – 24 .12
Location: Zurich Main Station
Station concourse
Our watches take a little time if you want to look at them closely. This year, the Polarzauber at Zurich’s main station offers the perfect setting to do so, softening winter with long and wonderful encounters with our timepieces. It’s going to be a beautiful Christmas season with you.
