BUCHERER EXCLUSIVE L ’ EPÉE TIME MACHINE –
A JOURNEY TO THE FUTURE
A Bucherer Exclusive , the Time Machine comes in an even more innovative design . The mechanical sculpture was designed with sci-fi classics like “ Back to the Future ” in mind . The fascinating design skilfully blends aesthetics with all the subtleties of watchmaking . The time capsule – the glass tube , the time display and the whole mechanical movement – can easily be set in rotation . What ’ s more , the time capsule showcases the entire movement with eight-day power reserve resplendently . Two black metal cylinders in the interior of the time capsule are used to indicate the time . The elegantly formed wheels at either end of the capsule are used to set the time and wind the barrel . With its intricate details and sophisticated design features , the idea behind the Time Machine is to incite observers to set off on a wonderful journey through time and experience the many facets of this exciting timepiece .
