To mark the world's biggest soccer event, Lucerne-based
watch manufacturer Carl F. Bucherer presents the official timepiece of the
Swiss national football team that reflects the fascination exerted by the
beautiful game.
This summer promises to be a special one. For months now,
soccer fans have been looking forward to the excitement and surprises offered
by one of the greatest sporting events of them all. Because when it comes to
thrills, enthusiasm and sheer partisan commitment, nothing quite equals the
World Cup. And that enthusiasm is shared by premium watch brand Carl F.
Bucherer. Now, as an expression of its love of sport and loyalty to the Swiss
national football team, the Lucerne- based watch manufacturer is proud to
dedicate a special model to them: the Patravi ScubaTec SFV Special Edition, a
thoroughbred sports watch that was developed especially for the Swiss soccer
team and officially presented on May 27.
In a striking combination of black and red, the limited sports
model is equipped with a wealth of fascinating features: engravings of various
footballers are visible on the pleochroic dial, while the logo of the Swiss
Football Association – the SFV – makes the watch an unmistakable hallmark of
the brand. With all the sophisticated technology of a top-quality diver's
watch, including integrated strap adjustment, automatic helium valve and
unidirectional rotating bezel, the Patravi ScubaTec SFV Special Edition is the
ideal sports watch both above and below the surface. The robust rubber strap
and eye-catching stainless-steel bezel with black and red ceramic inserts endow
the extraordinary timepiece with its unmistakably sporting character. On the
case back of this outstanding special edition is another exclusive and individual
detail: an intricate engraving of a football together with the name of the
player to whom the watch belongs. Because, as part of a drive to strengthen and
motivate the entire national team, each player will be presented with his own
personal Patravi ScubaTec SFV Special Edition.
At a press conference held on May 27 and attended by
distinguished guests from the worlds of football and watchmaking, three of the
Swiss players, representing the entire team, received their own personal
special editions. A panel discussion following the presentation led by radio
presenter Andy Wolf raised lots of thought-provoking questions about watches
and sport.
Equipped with the perfect wristwatch for a sporting
occasion, and buoyed up by their unlimited commitment and love of the game, the
Swiss national team is now ready for anything. Let the Brazilian adventure
begin.
The watch will be available in stores from June.
