A CRUDE will become your CRUDE. As soon as you own it and wear it regularly, the watch will reflect you and your character more and more. Your lifestyle, your travels, your adventures will shape its patina. Due to the nature of the unique and living raw material silver, CRUDE’s outer shell will transform and live with you: every notch, every tiny change stores a memory. This has less to do with a smooth, posh, polished, mainstream luxury and more to do with freedom, independence and life. In a nutshell: it’s all about true luxury.
That’s the big difference between CRUDE and other watches. But it’s not the only one. You won't find a case and dial made in a single silver cast anywhere else. And as soon as you fall directly into the watch through the perfectly anti-reflective sapphire crystal, you'll find nine impressive, brilliant-cut black diamonds. It's this interplay of roughness, fire and precision, of raw originality and superior luxury that makes CRUDE CRUDE. It’s a watch that clearly stands out from the mainstream – probably just like you do.
Of course, the inner values are just as important. After all, don’t they define who we really are? CRUDE's rough silver shell contains complex precision mechanics, high-precision technology and a heart made in Switzerland. You want to know a lot more? Just scroll down a bit.
LUXURY CAN BE SO CRUDE
No compromises: All of the watch's components come from Germany and Switzerland.
