Vintage Bucherer Automatic Men wristwatch -SOLD






Someone asked me if this backcover is genuine, because it has TEVO watch. I advised him, why not google.
It IS Genuine. Read the background history of Bucherer, you will find that Bucherer is a high-end Swiss jeweller, same as Longines, they don't manufacture movements, instead used others movements like ETA, Felsa, Valjoux, Lemania, FHF etc. encased in their watches. In this case, Bucherer used movements manufactured by TEVO. Similar case of Omega watches but having Dennison casing.
Furthermore, if you are lucky, you might find Bucherer watches made by ROLEX! In 1950's, Rolex contracted Bucherer to supply watches, meaning the whole watche were produced by Rolex but having Bucherer dial. Don't believe? Better believe!
You know, being into this hobby, please dont just like a watch because it look nice. A little bit of reading is good for enhancing your knowledge in this subject that is very subjective to their history. This is what make me enjoy this hobby.




and here is the Bucherer store in Geneve.
