Paul Gerber Watches
Paul Gerber is an expert in horology
and has created a most impressive range of watches that include the
Model
33, Retro
Twin and the Retrograd. He specialises in new developments and miniaturisation and
this can be seen in all the watches produced by him, for example the
Model
33, Retro
Twin and the Retrograd. This exceptional miniaturisation has also captured the attention of others, with him having an entry in the Guniess Book of World Records! Style and elegance are also important to Paul Gerber and this is
reflected in all of his immaculate creations, especially in the Model
33, Retro
Twin and the Retrograd.
Paul Gerber
was born in Bern in 1950,
the capital of Switzerland.
His father, a watchmaker
himself, trained Phim as
a watchmaker-rhabilleur.
Paul Gerber lives in Zurich
and has established his
own watch construction company. Ever and ever the brilliant
and highly creative watchmaker
Paul Gerber surprises with
new developments of complicated
mechanisms for his own watches,
but also for the ones ordered
by world famous watch brands.
The wide range of horological
masterpieces produced in the Paul Gerber workshop comprises of
a complicated miniature
wall clock, a wristwatch
with retrograde seconds
hand and a double-rotor
automatic winding system,
an own novel escapement
with diverging forces and
finally a flying tourbillon
and further complications,
incorporated into an already
highly complicated wristwatch
based on a movement by Louis
Elysée Piguet. Ever
since this Paul Gerber watch has become
the
most complicated wristwatch
of the world (Guinness
Book of Records).
Paul Gerber is an exceptional
watchmaker and his art requires
an excellent technical know-how
as well as creativity and
specific artisanal skills.
Manufactures of this class
are a synthesis of traditional
handicraft and modern techniques.
It is therefore the
desire of Paul Gerber and wish not only
to create the designs on
the computer, but also to
work at the lathe by himself.
