Introduction

Launched in 2024 as a collaboration between Hodinkee, the esteemed watch publication website and watch retailer, and legendary watchmaker Carl F. Bucherer, the watch that we have here, Heritage Worldtimer ref. 00.10805.08.53.99 is a limited edition offering of just 150 pieces that combines modern taste with vintage-inspired design details. Boasting a 39mm x 10.25mm construction, this timepiece combines a two-tone navy blue dial with a luxuriously-finished stainless steel case that meets modern sizing standards while also championing the romantic finishing standards that vintage watches often boast, such as its strongly beveled lugs and thin sloped bezel. With twin winding crowns on its 3 and 9 o'clock sides, as a result of its automatic cal. A2020 movement, the Heritage Worldtimer is both functional and aesthetically unique. Offered a beads of rice stainless steel bracelet - again a vintage-inspired detail - this watch combines the charming details that collectors love in vintage watchmaking with modern manufacturing standards.
